Procedure

0.230 g (0.610 mmol) 6-(2-Azido-ethoxy)-2-methyl-3-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-benzo[b]thiophene and 0.484 g (1.83 mmol) of triphenylphosphin were dissolved in 1.6 ml of tetrahydrofuran. After stirring of the reaction mixture for 15 minutes at room temperature, 0.1 ml of water were added and the reaction mixture heated to 60° C. for 16 hours. It was then evaporated under reduced pressure, poured into 50 ml of water and extracted 3 times with 10 ml of dichloromethane. The combined dichloromethane phases were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue formed was chromatographed on silica gel with a 9:1 v/v mixture of dichloromethane and methanol as the eluent giving 0.200 g (93.4%) 2-[2-Methyl-3-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-benzo[b]thiophen-6-yloxy]-ethylamine as colorless oil, MS: 352 (MH+).
