Procedure: A 2.1 g. portion of 1,1-diphenyl-2-propanone is converted to 1-bromo-3,3-diphenyl-2-propanone as described in Example 22. This 1-bromo-3,3-diphenyl-2-propanone is dissolved in 15 ml. of acetone and added to a boiling mixture of 1.0 g. of tetrahydro-5,5-dimethyl-2(1H)-pyrimidinethione in 50 ml. of acetone. The mixture is allowed to stand at room temperature for 24 hours and the resulting solid is collected by filtration, giving the desired product, m.p. 259°-261° C. the resulting solid is collected by filtration

Procedure: A 2.1 g. portion of 1,1-diphenyl-2-propanone is converted to 1-bromo-3,3-diphenyl-2-propanone by the procedure of Example 22. The 1-bromo-3,3-diphenyl-2-propanone is dissolved in 15 ml. of acetone and added to a boiling mixture of 0.80 g. of tetrahydro-2-pyrimidinethione in 70 ml. of acetone. This mixture is allowed to stand for 48 hours and the resulting solid is collected by filtration, giving the desired product, m.p. 196°-198° C. the resulting solid is collected by filtration

Procedure: A solution of 4.20 g. of 1,1-diphenyl-2-propanone in 25 ml. of acetic acid is heated at 60°-70° C. and 1.0 ml. of bromine in 8 ml. of acetic acid is added dropwise. The reaction mixture is held at 60°-70° C. for one hour and then poured into ice. Toluene is added. The toluene layer is separated, washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to obtain 1-bromo-3,3-diphenyl-2-propanone. poured into ice The toluene layer is separated washed with water dried over magnesium sulfate concentrated

Procedure: To a cooled (-80° C.) solution of ((3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)methyloxy)acetonitrile (0.51 g; Example 1a, Method B(i) was added 0.42M lithio diphenylmethane (10 ml; prepared by addition of 2.5M n-butyl lithium in hexane (10 ml) to a cooled (-80° C.) solution of diphenylmethane (4.2 g) in diethyl ether (5 ml), followed by warming to room temperature for 3 hours). The solution was warmed to room temperature for 0.5h and then 1M-hydrochloric acid (10 ml) and ethyl acetate were added and the organic phase washed with saturated brine and dried (MgSO4). After evaporation in vacuo the residue was chromatographed on silica gel (eluting with 5% ethyl acetate in hexane ) to give 1-(3,5-bis(triflouromethyl)phenyl)methyloxy)-3,3-diphenyl acetone as an oil which gave an identical 1H NMR spectrum to the material prepared by Method A. the organic phase washed with saturated brine dried (MgSO4) After evaporation in vacuo the residue was chromatographed on silica gel (eluting with 5% ethyl acetate in hexane )

Procedure: Diphenylacetyl chloride (4.6 g), tri-n-butyl-((3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)methyloxymethyl)tin (12.6 g; Example 1a, (Method Ai)and benzylchlorobis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (II)(80 mg)were dissolved in chloroform (10 ml) and the solution heated at 80° C. for 6h. On cooling diethyl ether and saturated aqueous potassium fluoride were added and after 30 minutes the solution was filtered through Hiflo™. The organic layer was washed with water, saturated brine and dried (MgSO4). After evaporation in vacuo the residual oil was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 0 to 10% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether bp=60°-80° C.) to give 1-(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)methyloxy)-3,3-diphenyl acetone as an oil. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 360MHz) δ7.80 (1H; s; 4-aryl CH) 7.71 (2H; s; 2,6-aryl CH), 7.43-7.24 (10H; m; phenyl), 5.30 (1H; s; Ph2CH), 4.56 (2H; s), 4.31 (2H; s). m/e Found 452.1191, C24H13F6O2 requires 452.12110. were added and after 30 minutes the solution was filtered through Hiflo™ The organic layer was washed with water, saturated brine dried (MgSO4) After evaporation in vacuo the residual oil was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluting with 0 to 10% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether bp=60°-80° C.)
