Procedure

[4-(3-Bromo-5-hydroxy-benzylsulfanyl)-2-methyl-phenoxy]-acetic acid ethyl ester (1.0 g; 2.43 mmol), cyclopropylcarbinol (175 mg; 2.43 mmol) and tributylphosphine (1.07 mL; 4.38 mmol) was dissolved in THF (100 mL) in a dried reaction flask under an atmosphere of nitrogen. 1,1′-(Azodicarbonyl)dipiperidine (1.1 g; 4.38 mmol) dissolved in THF (20 mL) was added to the reaction mixture, which was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered, evaporated to dryness and purified by flash chromatography (ethyl acetate:heptane 1:9→2:3). Yield: 980 mg; 86%; HPLC-MS: m/z: 465.0 (M)+; Rt: 2.74 min.
