Reaction Steps
(All solutions were degassed) To a suspension of 1,10-phenanthroline (183.0 mg; 1.02 mmol) in toluene (15 mL) was added CuI (96.7 mg; 0.51 mmol), Cs2CO3 (3.31 g; 10.15 mmol), and a solution of 3-[2-(4-iodo-phenyl)-thiomorpholin-4-yl]-propionic acid tert-butyl ester (2.20 g; 5.08 mmol) and benzyl alcohol (1.05 mL; 10.15 mmol) in toluene (20 mL). The resulting mixture was heated for three days at 100° C. After cooling to RT EtOAc and water were added. The layers were separated and the organic layer was dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, EtOAc/CH2Cl2 1:6) to afford 3-[2-(4-benzyloxy-phenyl)-thiomorpholin-4-yl]-propionic acid tert-butyl ester (1.85 g).
