(5-Methoxy-2-nitro-phenyl)-(3,4,5-trimethoxy-phenyl)-methanol was prepared analogously to (4-methoxy-3-nitro-phenyl)-(3,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-methanol using 3,4,5-trimethoxy-bromobenzene (4.6 g, 18.5 mmol), magnesium turning (0.5 g, 18.5 mmol) and 5-methoxy-2-nitro-benzaldehyde (2.8 g, 15.5 mmol). The crude product was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, CH2Cl2:EtOAc 9:1) to afford (5-methoxy-2-nitro-phenyl)-(3,4,5-trimethoxy-phenyl)-methanol (2.9 g, 53%); 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 8.08 (d, J=9 Hz, 1H), 7.20 (d, J=2 Hz, 1H), 6.91-6.87 (dd, J=3, 9 Hz, 1H), 6.57 (s, 2H), 6.45 (d, J=4 Hz, 1H), 3.88 (s, 3H), 3.82 (s, 3H), 3.80 (s, 6H), 3.04 (d, J=4 Hz, 1H).
