Procedure

To 3-(4-bromophenyl)propan-1-ol (4.70 g, 21.9 mmol), isoindoline-1,3-dione (3.54 g, 24.0 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (6.88 g, 26.2 mmol) in a 500 mL round bottomed flask equipped with a stir bar, nitrogen, and addition funnel, and cooled in an ice water bath was added diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (5.10 mL, 26.2 mmol). The reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature over the weekend. The reaction mixture was adsorbed onto Celite®. Purification by flash column chromatography using 5-20% ethyl acetate/hexanes as eluent provided a solid which was dried overnight at 50° C. in vacuo to afford the title compound as a white solid (6.51 g, 87%): mp 88-90° C., 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.86-7.79 (m, 2H), 7.71 (dd, J=5.5, 3.0 Hz, 2H), 7.38-7.32 (m, 2H), 7.11-7.04 (m, 2H), 3.73 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 2.68-2.59 (m, 2H), 2.07-1.96 (m, 2H); ESIMS m/z 346 [(M+2)+].
