Procedure: 55.00 g (0.408 Mol) 4,4,4-trifluorobutan-1-ol are dissolved in 550 ml tetrahydrofurane, 142 ml (0.102 Mol) triethylamine are added at room temperature. 38 ml (0.490 Mol) methanesulfonyl chloride were added dropwise under nitrogen. The mixture is stirred for 1 h at 0-5° C. The beige suspension is Hyflo-filtrated and washed with tetrahydrofurane. The filtrate is concentrated. The residue is dissolved in 1.4 l 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone 62.70 g (0.408 Mol) of methyl 4-hydroxybenzoate and 226.00 g (1.43 Mol) of potassium carbonate are added to the lightly brown solution. The reaction suspension is allowed to react at 80° C. for 14 h. 1 l (1.0 Mol) of a 1N NaOH solution is added to the above mixture. The suspension is heated at reflux temperature for 30 min until the reaction is completed. The reaction mixture is allowed to cool at room temperature and thrown in cold water. The solution is carefully acidified with a 25% HCl solution and is stirred for 15 min. The product is filtrated off, washed with water and dried overnight at room temperature under vacuum to give 99.00 g (98%) of 4-(4,4,4-trifluorobutoxy)benzoic acid as a white solid. The beige suspension is Hyflo-filtrated washed with tetrahydrofurane The filtrate is concentrated are added to the lightly brown solution to react at 80° C. for 14 h The suspension is heated at reflux temperature for 30 min until the reaction to cool at room temperature is stirred for 15 min The product is filtrated off washed with water dried overnight at room temperature under vacuum

Procedure: To a mixture of (1R)-1-(1-piperidin-4-yl-1H-imidazo[4,5-d]thieno[3,2-b]pyridin-2-yl)ethanol (15.0 mg, 0.0496 mmol) and 4,4,4-trifluorobutanol (9.4 mg, 0.0744 mmol) in methylene chloride (0.3 mL) and N,N-dimethylformamide (0.2 mL) was added resin of tetramethylammonium triacetoxyborohydride (48.4 mg, 0.0992 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred overnight. The mixture was filtered and concentrated then purified using RP-HPLC (XBridge C18 column, eluting with a gradient of acetonitrile/water containing 0.1% ammonium hydroxide, at flow rate of 30 mL/min) to give 7 mg (34%) of the desired product.

Procedure: To a solution of 4,4,4-trifluorobutan-1-ol (5.0 g, 39.0 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (30 mL) and pyridine (20 mL) was added 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (0.24 g, 2.0 mmol) followed by p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (7.4 g, 39.0 mmol). The mixture was allowed to stir at ambient temperature for 20 hours then was quenched with 5% aqueous HCl (20 mL) and the layers were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×5 mL).
