Procedure
To a stirred solution of (Z)-ethyl 2-bromo-4-(4,4,4-trifluoro-3-(3,4,5-trichlorophenyl)but-1-en-1-yl)benzoate (360 mg, 0.70 mmol) in CH3CN (1.0 mL) was added iodotrimethylsilane (0.28 mL, 2.8 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 20 h, allowed to cool to ambient temperature and partitioned between CH2Cl2 and aqueous 10% sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3). The organic phase was washed once with aqueous 10% Na2S2O3 and dried over magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo. Passing the material through a silica plug with 10% EtOAc in hexanes, followed by 20% MeOH in CH2Cl2) as the eluting solvents afforded the title compound as a yellow foam (143 mg, 42%): mp 54-64° C.; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 11.36 (s, 1H), 7.99 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.43 (s, 1H), 7.30 (s, 2H), 7.14 (d, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 6.85 (d, J=11.4 Hz, 1H), 6.15 (t, J=10.9 Hz, 1H), 4.36-4.09 (m, 1H); 19F NMR (376 MHz, CDCl3) δ −69.30.
