Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of the obtained 5-[3-[3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1-benzofuran-5-yl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol, iodomethane (2.17 mL, 34.8 mmol) and potassium carbonate (3.61 g, 26.1 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (70 mL) was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed twice with water and once with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by basic silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=4/1) and recrystallized from hexane/ethyl acetate to give the title compound (1.01 g, yield 15%) as colorless crystals.
