Reaction Steps

Et2O (10 mL) was added to compound 9 (0.189 g, 0.417 mmol) to form a clear pale yellow solution. At −80° C., an Et2O (5 mL) solution of 2-isopropylphenyllithium (0.136 g, 1.08 mmol) was added dropwise to form a red-purple solution. The mixture was allowed to slowly warm to ambient temperature overnight. Water (50 mL) was then added followed by Et2O (50 mL). The organics were separated, dried with brine and then MgSO4. Evaporation of the volatiles afforded compound 10, which did not require any purification. Yield: 0.224 g, 76.2%. 1H NMR (CD2Cl2): δ 7.67 (t, 2H), 7.1-7.53 (m, 10H), 7.00 (m, 3H), 5.44 (d, 1H), 4.40 (d, 1H), 3.69 (s, 2H), 3.11 (sept, 1H), 2.91 (sept, 2H), 2.24 (m, 1H), 1.5-1.7 (m, 6H), 1.25 (d, 3H), 1.1-1.2 (m, 4H), 0.97 (d, 12H), 0.93 (d, 6H).
