Reaction Steps

75 mg of 5-{4-[2-(6-acetoxy-7-t-butyl-2-methylchroman-2-yl)ethoxy]benzyl}-2-iminothiazolidin-4-one (prepared as described in Example 6) were added to a mixture of 0.5 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid, 2 ml of water and 2 ml of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, and the mixture was heated under reflux for 4 hours. The mixture was then processed and purified by the procedures described in Example 1(a), except that the crude product, in the form of an oil, was purified by column chromatography through silica gel, eluted with a 5:1 by volume mixture of benzene and ethyl acetate, to give the title compound.
