Participants

Reaction Steps

In analogy to the procedure described in example 1 d], [rac]-2-ethoxy-3-(3-fluoro-4-hydroxy-phenyl)-propionic acid ethyl ester (example 7 a]) was reacted with 2-(2-p-tolyl-thiazol-4-yl)-ethanol (prepared from (2-p-tolyl-thiazol-4-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester [Collection of Czechoslovak Chemical Communications (2001), 66(12), 1809-1830] with lithium aluminium hydride in analogy to the procedure described in example 12 b]) in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of triphenylphosphine and DEAD (diethyl azodicarboxylate) to yield [rac]-2-ethoxy-3-{3-fluoro-4-[2-(2-p-tolyl-thiazol-4-yl)-ethoxy]-phenyl}-propionic acid ethyl ester, which was further saponified in analogy to the procedure described in example 4 e], to yield [rac]-2-ethoxy-{3-fluoro-4-[2-(2-p-tolyl-thiazol-4-yl)-ethoxy)-phenyl}-propionic acid as light yellow solid.
