Procedure

5-(5-((2-(1-ethylcyclopentyloxy)-2-oxoethoxy)carbonyl)-2-methoxyphenyl)-5H-dibenzo[b,d]thiophenium iodide (10.0 g, 16.2 mmol) and triethylammonium 1,1-difluoro-2-(methacryloyloxy)ethanesulfonate (5.64 g, 17.0 mmol, 1.05 eq) were dissolved in dichloromethane (200 mL) and water (200 mL) and stirred at r.t. overnight. The dichloromethane layer was separated and the aqueous phase washed with dichloromethane (3×250 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water (3×250 mL), concentrated in vacuo and azeotroped with acetonitrile (2×100 mL) to afford the title compound (10.1 g, 86%) as a white hydroscopic solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, (d-DMSO) δ: 8.52 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 8.35 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 8.27 (dd, J=8.1, 2.1 Hz, 1H), 7.98 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 7.78 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 7.55 (d, J=2.1 Hz, 1H), 7.54 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 6.09-6.13 (m, 1H), 5.76-5.79 (m, 1H), 4.74 (s, 2H), 4.62 (dd, J=15.6, 15.6 Hz, 2H), 4.05 (s, 3H), 1.83-1.98 (m, 7H), 1.45-1.65 (m, 6H), 0.79 (t, J=6.6 Hz, 3H).
