반응 단계

344 mg of sodium hydride (as a 55% w/w dispersion in mineral oil) were added, whilst ice-cooling and in an atmosphere of nitrogen, to a solution of 0.35 ml of methyl thioglycolate in 90 ml of tetrahydrofuran, and the resulting mixute was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. At the end of this time, it was cooled with ice, and a solution of 2.94 g of N-[4-(4-piperidinomethyl-2-pyridyloxy)-cis-2-butenyl]-5-chloropentanamide [prepared as described in step (a) above] in 30 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise to the mixture. The reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, after which the solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The residue was mixed with water, and the resulting aqueous mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by column chromatography through silica gel, using a 1:19 by volume mixture of methanol and ethyl acetate as the eluent, to give 2.84 g (yield 89%) of the title compound as an oil.
