Reaction Steps

A mixture of 100 mg of 4-(isobutylthio)pyridine-2(1H)-one, 2 ml of DMF, 65 mg of t-BuOK was stirred at room temperature and 105 mg of 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzyl chloride was added. After 3 hour, the resulting solution was evaporated, extracted with dichloromethane and subjected to silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate) to obtain the compound (90 mg).
