2-acetoxy-1-(4(S)-benzyl-2,2-dimethyl-oxazolidin-3-yl)-2-(biphenyl-4-yl-1H-pyrrol-3-yl)-ethanone → 2-Acetoxy-2-(2-biphenyl-4-yl-furan-5-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester

Reaction Steps

According to the procedure described in Example 13 for the preparation of 2-acetoxy-1-(4(S)-benzyl-2,2-dimethyl-oxazolidin-3-yl)-2-(biphenyl-4-yl-1H-pyrrol-3-yl)-ethanone, 2-(2-biphenyl-4-yl-furan-5-yl)-2-hydroxy-acetic acid ethyl ester was acylated to furnish in 83% yield 2-acetoxy-2-(2-biphenyl-4-yl-furan-5-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester which was used without purification. Flash column chromatography with 0-20% EtOAc/hex as eluant gave an analytically pure pink solid, mp 136-140° C.
