Ethyl (1RS)-1-Hydroxy-1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)indene-2-carboxylate. To dry magnesium turnings (81 mg, 3,4 mmol) under an argon atmosphere was added a solution of 2-bromoanisole (0.64 g, 3.4 mmol) in 5:1 THF/Et2O (3 ml). A portion of the resulting 2-methoxyphenyl magnesium bromide solution (0.45 ml, 0.51 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of ethyl 3-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-1-oxoindene-2-carboxylate (100 mg, 0.34 mmol) in THF (6 ml) under an argon atmosphere at 0° C. After stirring for 15 min, the mixture was partitioned between 3M HCl and EtOAc. The organic extract was washed successively with H2O, 5% aqueous NaHCO3, H2O and saturated aqueous NaCl. The solvent was removed in vacuo, and the residue was purified by flash chromatography, eluting with 15% EtOAc/hexanes to afford the title compound. (100 mg, 68%).
