Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.50 g (0.0013 mole) of 2-chloro-3-[2,4-dichloro-5-(4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl]propionic acid (Compound A2) and 5 mL of thionyl chloride was stirred at reflux for three hours. The mixture was cooled, and excess thionyl chloride was removed by distillation under reduced pressure leaving a residue. The residue was added to a cold solution of 0.13 g (0.0014 mole) of N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride and 0.11 g (0.0014 mole) of pyridine in 20 mL of tetrahydrofuran. The resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature for approximately 18 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with diethyl ether and was washed in succession with a 1N hydrochloric acid solution, an aqueous 10% sodium hydroxide solution, water, and an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution. The washed organic phase was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and was filtered. The filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give 0.37 g of N-methyl-N-methoxy-2-chloro-3-[2,4-dichloro-5-(4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl]propionamide as an oil, Compound A22 of Table 1A.
