Procedure

To a flask containing 6-bromo-4-chloro-2-methoxy-3-(4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)quinoline (1.0 g, 2.32 mmol, Intermediate 5: step d) was added THF (30 mL) at room temperature which resulted in a colorless homogeneous mixture. The solution was cooled to −75° C. and then n-BuLi (2.5 M in hexanes, 1.08 mL, 2.69 mmol) was added dropwise. After 2 minutes, tert-butyl 3-formylazetidine-1-carboxylate (545 mg, 2.94 mmol in 3 mL THF) was introduced. After 5 minutes, the reaction mixture was transferred to an ice-water bath and stirring was continued for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was quenched with aqueous NH4Cl solution and the aqueous portion was extracted with EtOAc (5×40 mL). The combined organics were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to dryness. The crude material was chromatographed on silica gel (20% EtOAc-hexanes increasing to 50% EtOAc) to provide the title compound as a white solid.
