Participants

Reaction Steps

1.12 g (3 mmol) of 2-hydroxy-3-(3-phenyl-(2E)-propenoxy)-3,3-diphenylpropionic acid were added to a suspension of 432 mg (9 mmol, 50%) of NaH in 20 ml of DMF, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 10 minutes. 614 mg (3.3 mmol) of 4,6-dimethyl-1-methylsulfonylpyrimidine were added, and the mixture was stirred for 16 hours, then diluted with 200 ml of water, acidified with 1 N hydrochloric acid and extracted with ether. The ether phase was extracted with 1 N sodium hydroxide solution, the aqueous phase was again acidified, and the product was extracted with ether. The organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate and filtered, and the solvent was distilled off. The residue was recrystallized from ether/hexane, and 927 mg (65%) of crystalline product were isolated.
