Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl {[1-{[3-(chloromethyl)phenyl]sulfonyl}-4-fluoro-5-(2-fluoropyridin-3-yl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl]methyl}methylcarbamate (386 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (3 mL) were added sodium thiomethoxide (58 mg) and potassium iodide (125 mg) and the mixture was stirred for 21 hr. Dimethylformamide (3 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 76 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The separated aqueous layer was extracted again with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by basic silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate=9:1→4:1) to give the title compound as a yellow oil (yield 291 mg, 74%).
