Procedure

Trifluoromethyltrimethylsilane (2N in THF, 0.76 mL, 1.5 mmol) was added at 0° C. to a solution of 1-(2-methyl-pyridin-4-yl)-2-phenyl-propan-1-one (142 mg, 0.63 mmol) in THF (5 mL), followed by the addition of tetrabutylammonium fluoride trihydrate (40 mg, 0.13 mmol). After stirring overnight at r.t., an additional amount of trifluoromethyl-trimethylsilane (0.38 mL), followed by tetrabutylammonium fluoride trihydrate (20 mg) was added to drive the reaction towards completion. The solvent was evaporated, the residue was taken up in methanol, and the title compound (42 mg, 23%) was isolated by reversed-phase, preparative HPLC (Agilent Zorbax XdB-C18 column, solvent gradient 5-95% CH3CN in 0.1% TFA[aq]). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-D6) 8.25 (1H, d), 7.17 (1H, s), 7.11 (2H, d), 7.09-7.00 (4H, m), 6.93 (1H, s), 3.62 (1H, q), 2.35 (3H, s), 1.42 (3H, d); MS (m/e)=296.4 [MH+].
