Participants

Reaction Steps

Step 4) To a solution of (5-bromo-2-((triisopropylsilyloxy)methyl)phenyl)(4-ethylphenyl)methanol (4.76 mmol) and 2,6-lutidine (1.6 mL, 13.51 mmol) in dichloromethane (30.0 mL) was slowly added TIPSOTf (1.8 mL, 6.75 mmol) at 0° C., and the reaction mixture was stirred for 12 h at room temperature. The resulting mixture was quenched with CH3OH, diluted with EtOAc and washed with brine. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude was purified by silica gel column chromatography to provide the title compound (2.94 g, 97% 2-step) as yellow oil.
