Procedure: 1-Bromo-4-isobutoxy-benzene (625 mg, 2.73 mmol) is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (2 mL) and cooled to −78° C. The solution is treated with a solution of n-butyllithium (1.6 M in hexanes, 1.7 mL, 2.73 mmol) and stirred 30 minutes after which a solution of 4-chloro-N-methoxy-N-methyl-3-sulfamoyl-benzamide (250 mg, 0.91 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (2 mL) is added. The reaction is allowed to stir for 18 hours while warming to ambient temperature. The reaction is quenched with a saturated solution of ammonium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase is separated and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is purified by column chromatography (gradient of ethyl acetate in hexanes 10-50%) affording 120 mg (37% yield) of the title compound. 1H NMR (DMSO) 1.00 (d, 6H, J=6.56 Hz), 2.01-2.10 (m, 1H), 3.88 (d, 2H, J=6.57 Hz), 7.11 (d, 2H, J=8.85 Hz), 7.76 (d, 2H, J=8.85 Hz), 7.81-7.84 (m, 3H), 7.89 (dd, 1H, J=2.02, 8.08), 8.24 (d, 1H, J=2.02).

Procedure: 4-Bromo-phenol (2 g, 11.6 mmol) is dissolved in acetone (40 mL). Potassium carbonate (8 g, 38.4 mmol) is then added followed by isobutyl bromide (4 g, 29.2 mmol). The reaction is heated to reflux for four days, refilling solvent as necessary. The reaction mixture is diluted with water and extracted with ether, the organic layer is separated and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is dissolved in hexane dried with magnesium sulfate, and filtered through a plug of silica gel. The solvent is removed in vacuo to afford 1.6 g (60% yield) of the title compound as a colorless non-viscous oil. 1H NMR (CDCl3) 1.01 (d, 6H, J=6.56 Hz), 2.05-2.08 (m, 1H), 3.67 (d, 2H, J=6.57 Hz), 6.77 (d, 2H, J=9.09 Hz), 7.36 (d, 2H, J=9.09 Hz).

Procedure: To a solution of 4-bromo-2-methylphenol (14.2 g) in DMF (75 ml) was added potassium carbonate (14.7 g), and to the mixture was added dropwise bromopropane (9.33 g). The mixture was stirred at 70° C. for 3 hours and cooled, and to the mixture was added water. The mixture was extracted with hexane, and the organic layer was washed with 1N sodium hydroxide solution and saturated brine, and dried with magnesium sulfate. Under reduced pressure, the solvent was evaporated to give colorless oil of 4-bromo-2-methyl-propoxybenzene (10.6 g). cooled The mixture was extracted with hexane the organic layer was washed with 1N sodium hydroxide solution and saturated brine dried with magnesium sulfate Under reduced pressure, the solvent was evaporated
