Procedure: N-(2,3-dimethoxybenzyl)butan-1-amine (0.59 g, 2.65 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (10 ml), 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propanoic acid (0.4 g, 2.41 mmol), was added and the mixture was cooled to 0° C. N-[(1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-1-yloxy)(dimethylamino)methylene]-N-methylmethanaminium tetrafluoroborate (0.85 g, 2.65 mmol) and diisopropylethylamine (0.65 g, 5.05 mmol) was added. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred over night. EtOAc (15 ml) was added and the organic phase was washed with two portions of sodium hydrogencarbonate (aq, 10 ml). EtOAc was removed by evaporation and the crude was purified by preparative HPLC (started with acetonitrile/buffer 60/40 and then the acetonitrile concentration was increased to 100%, the buffer was a mixture of acetonitrile/water 10/90 and ammonium acetate (0.1 M, column KR-100-7-C8, 50 mm×250 mm, flow 40 ml/min). The product containing fractions was pooled and the acetonitrile was removed by evaporation. EtOAc (10 ml) was added and the organic phase was washed with two potions of brine and dried (MgSO4). The solvent was removed by evaporation and gave 1.08 gram of N-butyl-N-(2,3-dimethoxybenzyl)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propanamide (yield 82.3%). to warm to room temperature the organic phase was washed with two portions of sodium hydrogencarbonate (aq, 10 ml) EtOAc was removed by evaporation the crude was purified by preparative HPLC ( the acetonitrile concentration was increased to 100% a mixture of acetonitrile/water 10/90 and ammonium acetate (0.1 M, column KR-100-7-C8, 50 mm×250 mm, flow 40 ml/min) The product containing fractions the acetonitrile was removed by evaporation EtOAc (10 ml) was added the organic phase was washed with two potions of brine dried (MgSO4) The solvent was removed by evaporation

Procedure: To a solution of N-butyl-N-(2,3-dimethoxybenzyl)amine (1.23 g, 5.5 mmol) and {4-[(2S)-2,3-diethoxy-3-oxopropyl]phenoxy}acetic acid (1.48 g, 5.0 mmol) in methylene chloride (50 mL) at 0° C. were added N,N-diisopropylethylamine (2.0 mL, 11.5 mmol) followed by O-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate (1.93 g, 6.0 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken up in ethyl acetate (200 mL) and the organic phase was washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (3×100 mL), 5% HCl (3×100 mL), and brine (100 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification on silica gel (120 g) with methanol (0-2% gradient) in methylene chloride as the eluent and collection of pure fractions afforded 1.07 g (43%) of a pale yellow oil. concentrated in vacuo the organic phase was washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (3×100 mL), 5% HCl (3×100 mL), and brine (100 mL) dried over Na2SO4 concentrated in vacuo Purification on silica gel (120 g) with methanol (0-2% gradient) in methylene chloride as the eluent and collection of pure fractions

Procedure: N-Butyl-2,3-dimethoxybenzamide (5.37 g, 22.6 mmol) was dissolved in freshly distilled THF (230 mL) and cooled in an ice bath under an argon atmosphere. Borane (28 mL of a 2 M solution of the dimethylsulfide complex in diethyl ether) was added and the ice bath was removed after 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was refluxed overnight and was then allowed to cool to room temperature. The reaction was quenched by careful addition of 10% HCl (11 mL) and the mixture was stirred for four hours and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken up in ethyl acetate (300 mL) and washed with aqueous 2 M K2CO3 (3×100 mL), and brine (100 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification on silica gel (160 g) with ethyl acetate (33-100% gradient) in heptane and finally 5% ethanol in ethyl acetate as the eluent yielded 2.74 g (54%) of a light yellow oil. cooled in an ice bath under an argon atmosphere the ice bath was removed after 15 minutes The reaction mixture was refluxed overnight The reaction was quenched by careful addition of 10% HCl (11 mL) concentrated in vacuo washed with aqueous 2 M K2CO3 (3×100 mL), and brine (100 mL) dried over Na2SO4 concentrated in vacuo Purification on silica gel (160 g) with ethyl acetate (33-100% gradient) in heptane and finally 5% ethanol in ethyl acetate as the eluent
