Procedure:
A mixture of 1.22 g (3 mmol) 1-(3-brom-4-methyl-anilino)-4-(4-pyridyl-methyl)-phthalazine (expl. 14 h) and 336 mg (3 mmol) potassium-tert.butylate in 10 ml DMSO is stirred in an open vessel for 10 days at RT. Then the yellow mixture is diluted with EtOAc and water, the aqueous layer separated off and extracted twice with EtOAc. The organic phases are washed twice with water and brine, dried (Na2SO4) and partly concentrated. After adding 10 g of SiO2, the residue is dried in vacuo and the resulting powder put on top of a SiO2 -column. Eluation with dichloromethane/EtOAc (5:1→1:1→EtOAc) yields [4-(3-brom-4 -methyl-anilino)phthalazin-1-yl](pyridin-4-yl)ketone (A) followed by [4-(3-brom-4-methyl-anilino)phthalazin-1-yl](pyridin-4-yl)methanol (B).

Procedure:
A 500 ml flask equipped with a decanter, a thermometer, a stirrer and an inlet for nitrogen gas was charged with 65.1 g (0.5 mol) of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and 365.4 g (2.5 mol) of diethyl oxalate, to which 2 g (10 mmol) of p-toluenesulfonic acid (catalyst) and 4 g of 2-t-butylhydroquinone (polymerization inhibitor) were added. The mixture was heated to keep about 130° C. for 3 hours in nitrogen atmosphere with distilling 22 ml (0.38 mol) of ethanol away. The reaction mixture was evaporated to remove excess diethyl oxalate and then distilled under vacuum to obtain 64.8 g (yield 76.5%) of 2-ethoxalyloxyethyl methacrylate (by 84°-125° C./0.4 mmHg).

Procedure:
To a mixture of 4-(2,6-difluorophenyl)-3-buten-2-one (i.e. the product of Step A) (8.1 g, 44.5 mmol) in ethanol (50 mL) was added methylhydrazine (2.1 g, 49 mmol). After 24 h, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. To the resulting oil (10.1 g) was added 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane (65 mL) and manganese oxide (41.7 g, 480 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated at 140° C. for 20 minutes, and then cooled to room temperature and filtered through a pad of Celite® (diatomaceous earth) on a sintered glass frit funnel rinsing with dichloromethane (2×20 mL). The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the resulting material was purified by MPLC (10 to 50% gradient of ethyl acetate in hexanes as eluant) to provide the title compound as a light yellow solid (4.02 g).

Procedure:
Compound 239 was prepared from 9b-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,3,9b-tetrahydroimidazo[2,1-a]isoindol-5-one using Method L. The tetrahydroimidazoisoindolone was bis-acylated with 4-fluorobenzoyl chloride according to Method H and the resulting phenolic ester function was converted to a phenol by basic hydrolysis. The product was then treated with chloroacetonitrile and K2CO3 in acetone and heated to reflux for 30 h to yield phenyl ether compound 239.
