Procedure: A solution of 1.00 g (4.11 mmol) 2,3-dihydro-6-bromo-(4H)-1-benzothiopyran-4-one and 78.3 mg (0.41 mmol) CuI in 15.0 ml THF and 6.0 ml Et2NH was sparged with argon for 5 minutes. To this solution was added 2.0 ml (1.39 g, 14.2 mmol) of (trimethylsilyl)acetylene followed by 288.5 mg (0.41 mmol) of bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) chloride. The resulting dark solution was stirred at room temperature for 3 days and then filtered through a pad of Celite, which was washed with EtOAc. The filtrate was washed with H2O and saturated aqueous NaCl before being dried over MgSO4. The title compound was isolated as an orange oil by column chromatography (4% EtOAc-hexanes). 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.13 (1H, d, J=1.9 Hz), 7.36 (1H, dd, J=2.1, 8.2 Hz), 7.14 (1H, d, J=8.2 Hz), 3.19 (2H, d, J=6.3 Hz), 2.91 (2H, d, J=6.3 Hz), 0.21 (9H, s). filtered through a pad of Celite, which was washed with EtOAc The filtrate was washed with H2O and saturated aqueous NaCl before being dried over MgSO4

Procedure: 6-Bromo-thiochroman-4-one (Intermediate-K2) (prepared according to the procedures found in Johnson, A. T. et al Bioorg Med. Chem. 1999, 7, 1321. incorporated herein by reference) (1.11 g, 4.6 mmol) in MeOH (46 mL) was treated with sodium borohydride (0.14 g, 4.6 mmol) at 0° C. for 30 m. The mixture was subjected to a standard aqueous work-up and the alcohol, 6-bromo-thiochroman-4-ol, was used in the next step without further purification. 6-Bromo-thiochroman-4-ol (˜4.5 mmol) in DMF (20 mL) was treated with imidazole (0.31 g) and TBSCl (0.69 g) at rt for 16 h. After an aqueous work-up the residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel with 10% EtOAc:hexanes to afford (6-bromo-thiochroman-4-yl-oxy)-tert-butyl-dimethyl-silane (Intermediate-K3) as a yellow oil, 1.06 g. the alcohol, 6-bromo-thiochroman-4-ol, was used in the next step without further purification After an aqueous work-up the residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel with 10% EtOAc

Procedure: A solution of 3.63 g (13.9 mmol) of 3-(4-bromothiophenoxy)propionic acid in 60 ml methanesulfonic acid was heated to 75° C. for 1.5 hours. After cooling to room temperature the solution was diluted with H2O and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were washed with 2N aqueous NaOH, H2O, and saturated aqueous NaCl and then dried over MgSO4. Removal of the solvent under reduced pressure afforded a yellow solid from which the product was isolated by column chromatography (3% hexanes) as a pale-yellow solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.22 (1H, d, J=2.1 Hz), 7.48 1H, dd, J=2.1, 8.3 Hz), 7.17 (1H, d, J=8.5 Hz), 3.24 (2H, t, J=6.4 Hz), 2.98 (2H, t, J=6.7 Hz). extracted with EtOAc The combined organic layers were washed with 2N aqueous NaOH, H2O, and saturated aqueous NaCl dried over MgSO4 Removal of the solvent under reduced pressure afforded a yellow solid from which the product
