Reaction Steps

(R)-3-(N-Cyclopentyl-N-n-propylamino)-8-fluoro-5-trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran (3.7 g, 8.7 mmol), DMF (50 mL), triethylamine (2.5 g, 25 mmol), methanol (4 g, 130 mmol), palladium(ll)acetate (100 mg, 0.45 mmol) and 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (200 mg, 0.48 mmol) were placed in a round-bottomed flask. The solution was stirred at 75° C. in an atmosphere of carbon monoxide for 4 h. After evaporation of the solvent in vacuo and subjecting the crude to flash chromatography, 2.5 g (86% yield) of the title compound as a colorless oil was isolated. GC/MS (70 eV) M=335 (20 %).
