Towards assembling of diarylmethine unit present in biologically important molecules, we have developed a new Weinreb Amide (WA) based building block derived from glycolic acid. The WA functionality present in this building block permits the sequential addition of various arylmagnesium bromide reagents in a controlled manner that enables assembly of a diarylmethine unit. The developed synthetic route provides easy access to important diarylethenes and α,α-diarylethylene glycols. The synthesized α,α-diarylethylene glycols provide access to synthetically important symmetrical and unsymmetrical α,α-diaryl acetaldehydes as valuable intermediates.
