Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (E)-1-[2-cyclopropyl-1-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl]-3-[(furan-2-yl)methylidene]piperidin-4-ol (2.30 g) in toluene (50 ml) were added thioacetic acid (0.92 ml) and N,N-dimethylformamide dineopentyl acetal (3.61 g) under ice-cooling, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. After stirring, saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution was added to the reaction mixture, and the resulting mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed in vacuo, and the residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column using a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate and hexane (1:19 to 1:9) as the eluent to afford the title compound (0.58 g, yield: 22%) as an orange-coloured oil.
