Reaction Steps

FQI-1 (200 mg, 1.0 equiv) was weighed into a dry reaction vial under an atmosphere of nitrogen. Dry toluene (4.3 mL) was added, followed by Lawesson's reagent (416 mg, 1.6 equiv). The vial was tightly sealed and the reaction was heated to reflux overnight. After cooling, the solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (gradient of 20% to 70% ethyl acetate in hexanes). Fractions which contained product were pooled to give 120 mg of an impure red oil which was recrystallized from dichloromethane/hexanes to give Compound X as white needles (40 mg, 19%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ=9.69 (br. s., 1 H), 7.20 (ddd, J=2.9, 6.0, 8.3 Hz, 1 H), 6.89-6.82 (m, 3 H), 6.46 (d, J=3.1 Hz, 2 H), 5.93 (d, J=1.2 Hz, 2 H), 4.54 (dd, J=6.4, 7.8 Hz, 1 H), 4.10-4.02 (m, 2 H), 3.42 (dd, J=7.8, 17.0 Hz, 1H), 3.23 (dd, J=6.4, 17.0 Hz, 1 H), 1.40 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 3 H). ESI-MS (M+H+) m/z=328.
