Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of zinc (33.7 g), THF (40 mL) and acetic acid (80 mL) was added dropwise a mixture of 1-[3-(benzyloxy)-4-nitrophenyl]-3,4-difluoro-1H-pyrrole (8.52 g), THF (80 mL) and acetic acid (40 mL) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min. The reaction mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (NH, hexane/ethyl acetate), and recrystallized from hexane/ethyl acetate to give the title compound (7.53 g).
