HCID 23024013, compound → p-Cyclohexylbenzaldehyde

Under a nitrogen stream, tetrahydrofuran (306 ml, 6.0 v/w) was added to ethyl 4-(N-(4-(4-aminophenyl)-2-thiazolyl)-N-methylamino)benzoate (51.0 g, 0.144 mol) obtained in Example 3(3). With stirring at room temperature, a solution of 4-cyclohexylbenzaldehyde (30.0 g, 0.158 mol) obtained in Production Example 1(2) in tetrahydrofuran (153 ml, 3.0 v/w) was added. The mixture was washed with tetrahydrofuran (51 ml, 1.0 v/w) and stirred at room temperature for 30 min. With stirring under ice-cooling, sodium triacetoxyborohydride (46.0 g, 0.216 mol) and acetic acid (12.4 ml, 0.216 mol) were added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hr. With stirring under ice-cooling, saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate (510 ml, 10.0 v/w) was added carefully. After stirring at room temperature for 1 hr., the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (408 ml) and the organic layer was washed successively with distilled water (255 ml) and saturated brine (255 ml), and dried over magnesium sulfate (50 g). After filtration and solvent evaporation, isopropyl alcohol (510 ml, 10.0 v/w) was added to the obtained orange solid, and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 1 hr. After stirring under ice-cooling for 1 hr., the resulting crystal were collected by filtration, and washed with isopropyl alcohol (102 ml) and tert-butylmethyl ether (102 ml) and dried in vacuo to give the title compound (58.0 g, yield 77.0%) as a pale-yellow solid.
