Reaction Steps

2 g of 5-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-4-ol were stirred in 75 ml of a 2N sodium hydroxyde solution for 1 hour. To the clear solution were added 75 ml of 4-methyl-2-pentanone and 3.76 g of 1-(diphenylmethyl)-3-methanesulfonyloxy-azetidine and the mixture was heated in an oil bath at 120° C. for 3.5 hours. Then another 2 g of mesylate were added and heating was continued for 64 hours. The upper layer was separated and washed with water. Evaporation in vacuo and chromatography with toluene/ethyl acetate (95:5) gave 4.22 g of 3-[(5-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-4-yl)oxy]-1-(diphenylmethyl)-azetidine as a clear oil that solidified spontaneous. M.S. (C.I.) (M/Z): 391 [M+H]+.
