( Z )‐1,1‐Dichloro‐2‐(4‐benzyloxyphenyl)‐2,3‐bis(4‐methoxyphenyl)cyclopropane ( 5 ), a potential antitumor agent designed to treat breast cancer, was prepared in three steps. A stereospecific palladium‐catalyzed cross coupling reaction which provided the intermediate ( Z )‐triaryl alkene 4 was a crucial step in the synthesis. Makosza phase transfer reaction on 4 gave the enantiomeric ( Z )‐dichlorocyclopropane derivatives 5 which were resolved by semipreparative HPLC on a chiral stationary phase consisting of amylose tris‐3,5‐dimethylphenyl carbamate coated on silica gel. © 1994 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
