[4-Cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-yl]-acetic acid → 2-[3-(2-{2-[4-Cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-yl]-acetylamino}-ethyl)-5-methoxy-phenoxy]-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

In analogy to the procedures described in example 26B] and 26C], 2-[3-(2-amino-ethyl)-5-methoxy-phenoxy]-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester (example 93A]) was reacted with [4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-yl]-acetic acid (prepared from 5-chloromethyl-4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine (example 27F]) in analogy to the sequences described in examples 26D] and 26E]) to give 2-[3-(2-{2-[4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-yl]-acetylamino}-ethyl)-5-methoxy-phenoxy]-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester, which was subsequently saponified to yield the title compound as colorless solid.
