Procedure

Compound 21 (0.216 g, 0.773 mmol) was diluted with anhydrous DMF (10 mL), and NaCN (0.190 g, 3.87 mmol) was added. The orange mixture was stirred at room temperature for 17 h. The mixture was concentrated and partitioned between EtOAc and H2O (50 mL each), and the layers were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2×50 mL), the combined organic layers were washed with H2O (2×80 mL) and sat aq. NaCl (50 mL) and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2), eluting with a gradient of 15% EtOAc in CH2Cl2 to 25% EtOAc in CH2Cl2 to yield the title compound as a white solid (0.109 g, 63%): mp 180-182° C. 1H-NMR (500 MHz; CDCl3): δ 8.44 (dd, J=8.3, 0.4 Hz, 1 H), 8.27-8.22 (m, 1 H), 8.18 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1 H), 7.81 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1 H), 7.79 (s, 1 H), 7.40 (dd, J=8.3, 1.7 Hz, 1 H), 3.94 (s, 2 H), 2.28 (s, 3 H); 13C-NMR (126 MHz; CDCl3): δ 169.2 (1 C), 151.5 (1 C), 138.8 (1 C), 132.1 (1 C), 128.7 (1 C), 126.2 (1 C), 125.6 (1 C), 124.9 (1 C), 117.3 (1 C), 114.7 (1 C), 25.1 (1 C), 24.0 (1 C); ESIMS m/z (rel. intensity) 473 (2M+Na+, 100).
