We have elaborated a two-step catalytic approach to nafoxidine, a key precursor to lasofoxifene. Firstly, an efficient α-arylation of 6-methoxy-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one with chlorobenzene was developed, which operates at low 0.1 mol% Pd-132 catalyst loading in the presence of 1.9 equivalents of sodium tert-butoxide at 60 °C in 1,4-dioxane and provides 6-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one in 90% yield. Secondly, we have demonstrated that 6-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one can be converted to nafoxidine in 61% yield via CeCl3 promoted reaction with (4-(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy)phenyl)lithium, which is formed in-situ from the corresponding arylbromide precursor and n-butyllithium. Altogether, the shortest two-step approach to nafoxidine from simple tetralone commodity starting material has been developed with overall 55% yield. The developed synthetic approach to nafoxidine has several beneficial aspects over the one used in the synthetic route primarily developed for the preparation of lasofoxifene.

Abstract A novel brief process for the synthesis of nafoxidene has been developed. The epoxidation of 6-methoxy-1-{4-[2-(pyrrolin-1-yl)ethoxy)]phenyl}-3,4-dihydronaphthalene by m-CPBA directly gave the ketone 6-methoxy-1-[4-(2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy)phenyl]-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-2(1H)-one, which was subject to phenyl magnesium bromide/cerium chloride and subsequently treated with an acid to yield nafoxidene. In addition, the preparation of the starting naphthalene was also optimized by replacing the aromatic lithium at low temperature with its Grignard reagent at refluxing THF. This mild process, without the use of toxic or noble metals, was more cost-efficient and easily worked up.
