[2-(2-Nitro-5-trifluoromethylphenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]propanedioic acid, dimethyl ester (46.54 g; 0.102 mole; see Example 4A) was dissolved in dry dimethylformamide (290 ml) under argon. Fifty percent sodium hydride (5.89 g; 0.123 mole; prewashed-hexane) was added with stirring which was continued for 20 minutes before allyl bromide (44 ml; 61.7 g; 0.510 mmole; d=1.398; 5 eq.) was added dropwise. After six hours, 40 minutes, the reaction was quenched with 1N hydrochloric acid. The solution was extracted with ethyl acetate (two times) and the extract was washed with 1N hydrochloric acid (two times), saturated potassium carbonate (two times), saturated sodium chloride, and dried (magnesium sulfate). The concentrated solution (viscous oil) was flash chromatographed (silica gel/9:1-hexane: ethyl acetate, followed by 8:2-hexane:ethyl acetate) in two portions. After drying in vacuo overnight, the yellow viscous oil product weighed 54.77 g. The product was used "as is" in the next step.
