Reaction Steps

4-[3E-(5-Benzo[b]thien-2-yl-2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-acryloyl]-benzoic acid of Ex. 3 was then made into a meglumine salt by suspending the 4-[3E-(5-benzo[b]thien-2-yl-2,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-acryloyl]-benzoic acid (4.45 g, 10 mmol) and N-methyl-D-glucamine (1.95 g, 10 mmol) in THF (100 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 minutes. Then, ethanol (100 mL) was added. This mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. THF (20 mL) and ethanol (20 mL) were added and the mixture was heated slightly until it became a solution. This solution was stirred for 30 minutes and evaporated to a yellow foam. Crystallization from methanol gave the desired 4-[3E-(5-benzo[b]thien-2-yl-2,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-acryloyl]-benzoic acid N-methyl-D-glucamine salt as a yellow solid (4 g, 63%), mp 75–80° C.
