Procedure: 188.0 g (0.79 mol) of 4-benzyloxy-3-fluorobenzaldehyde are initially introduced in 1000 ml of dichloromethane at 0° C. together with 90.0 g (0.79 mol) of 2-vinylpentan-1-ol. 176.0 g (0.39 mol) of bismuth(III) bromide are added in portions, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 19 h. Insoluble constituents are separated off, and the mixture is filtered absorptively (SiO2, CH2Cl2). The filtrate is concentrated to dryness, and the residue is purified by column chromatography (SiO2, n-heptane:MTBE=4:1). The oil obtained is taken up in chlorobutane, and the solution is added dropwise to cold ethanol. The crystals which deposit are collected and recrystallised again from n-heptane. In this way, 2-(4-benzyloxy-3-fluorophenyl)-4-bromo-5-propyltetrahydropyran is obtained as a yellowish solid. Insoluble constituents are separated off the mixture is filtered absorptively (SiO2, CH2Cl2) The filtrate is concentrated to dryness the residue is purified by column chromatography (SiO2, n-heptane:MTBE=4:1) The oil obtained The crystals which deposit are collected recrystallised again from n-heptane

When the addition is complete, the mixture is diluted with 1000 ml of THF, and the batch is heated at the boil for 1 h. The solution of the Grignard reagent is cooled to 0° C., and 118 ml (1.07 mol) of N-formylmorpholine in 100 ml of THF are added dropwise. After 1 h, the mixture is diluted with MTBE and hydrolysed using dilute hydrochloric acid. The organic phase is separated off, and the aqueous phase is extracted with MTBE. The combined organic phases are washed with saturated sodium chloride solution and dried using sodium sulfate. The solution is concentrated to dryness, and the crude product is recrystallised from n-heptane:MTBE. a gentle reflux is maintained after initiation of the Grignard reaction When the addition the batch is heated at the boil for 1 h The organic phase is separated off the aqueous phase is extracted with MTBE The combined organic phases are washed with saturated sodium chloride solution dried The solution is concentrated to dryness the crude product is recrystallised from n-heptane
