Reaction Steps

4-((6-(2-Methoxyethoxy)-1H-indol-5-yl)oxy)pyridin-2-amine described in Production Example 20-6 (2.60 g, 8.67 mmol) was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (50 mL), then 50-72% oily sodium hydride (499 mg) was added under nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature. Phenyl methylcarbamate described in Production Example 1-7 (1.97 g, 13.0 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and ethyl acetate and water were added for partition. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate twice, sodium chloride was added to the aqueous layer, and the resultant was extracted with ethyl acetate three times. The combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The drying agent was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum, and then the resultant was purified with NH silica gel column chromatography (n-heptane:ethyl acetate=1:4-0:1-ethyl acetate:methanol=49:1-24:1). The target fraction was concentrated under vacuum, and ethyl acetate was added and the precipitate was collected by filteration and washed to obtain the title compound (2.23 g, 72%).
