Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl-2-[1-({6-[4-methyl-3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenoxy]pyridin-3-yl}amino)ethylidene]hydrazinecarboxylate (Intermediate 33, 360 mg, 0.90 mmol) in 3 mL of acetonitrile and some drops of water, potassium carbonate (187 mg) was added. The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 24 hrs until complete conversion. The mixture was diluted with water (5 mL) and ethyl acetate (5 mL) and phases were separated. The aqueous phase was back-extracted with ethyl acetate (2×20 mL). The combined organics were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give 280 mg as pale orange foam. This material was dissolved in MTBE (1 mL) and n-heptane was added until a solid precipitated. This was collected by filtration to give 234 mg of the title compound as white solid.
