Reaction Steps

Following general procedure D and using 6-bromo-8-ethyl-2,2,4,4-tetramethyl chroman (Intermediate 46, 0.5 g, 1.61 mmol), (trimethylsilyl)acetylene (1.57 g, 16.1 mmol), triethyl amine (8 mL), anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (10 mL), copper(I)iodide (0.025 g, 0.13 mmol) and dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) (0.07 5 g, 0.11 mmol), followed by flash column chromatography over silica gel (230-400 mesh) using 5% ethyl acetate in hexane as the eluent, the title compound was obtained as an oil (0.137 g, 27%).
