Dimethyl Sulfoxide → 4-[1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperidin-4-yl]-6-{[2'-(5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]methyl}-7-propyl[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-5(4H)-one

Reaction Steps

A mixture of hydroxylammonium chloride (417 mg), sodium hydrogen carbonate (672 mg) and dimethyl sulfoxide (15 mL) was stirred at 40° C. for 30 min, 4′-({4-[1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperidin-4-yl]-5-oxo-7-propyl-4,5-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl}methyl)biphenyl-2-carbonitrile (200 mg) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 16 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and then with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (4 mL). N,N′-Carbonyldiimidazole (81 mg) and then 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (76 mg) were added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with saturated aqueous potassium hydrogensulfate solution and then with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography [eluent: methanol/ethyl acetate=5/95→30/70 (volume ratio)] and crystallized from acetonitrile to give the title compound as colorless crystals (51 mg, 23%).
