Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-methylene-3-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluoro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)thiazolidin-2-imine (Example 22C, 0.14 g, 0.44 mmol) in acetonitrile (3 mL) was added Hunig's base (0.062 g, 0.48 mmol) followed by 3-methylbutanoyl chloride (0.08 g, 0.66 mmol). The mixture was heated for 12 hours at 65° C. The reaction mixture was cooled down and more 3-methylbutanoyl chloride (0.08 g, 0.66 mmol) was added. The mixture was heated again at 65° C. for 12 hours. After cooling off, the mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2 (50 mL) and washed with water and brine. The organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and dried. After evaporation under reduced pressure the residue was chromatographed over silica using CH2Cl2 100%-5% MeOH/CH2Cl2 to supply the titled compound. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ ppm 0.95 (6 H), 2.20 (1 H), 2.35 (3 H), 2.40 (2 H), 6.75 (1 H), 7.20 (1 H), 7.30 (1 H), 7.40 (1 H); MS (ESI) m/z 405(M+H)+.
