Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.15 g of 3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1-[(2-chloropyridin-4-yl)methyl]-5,5-dimethylimidazolidine-2,4-dione obtained in stage a) of Example 7 in 50 mL of dioxane are successively added, under argon, 520 mg of 4-(pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl)aniline obtained in stage c) below, 3.4 g of caesium carbonate, 207 mg of (9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-3,6-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphine) [xantphos] and 67 mg of palladium diacetate. The reaction mixture is heated at 90° C. for 6 hours, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by chromatography on a column of silica, eluting with a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol (90/10 by volume) to give 88 mg of 3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-5,5-dimethyl-1-[(2-{[4-(pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl)phenyl]amino}pyridin-4-yl)methyl]imidazolidine-2,4-dione, the characteristics of which are as follows:
