Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-[3-nitro-1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (Preparation 868, 2.069 g, 5.791 mmol) in dimethyl sulfoxide (34 mL) was added potassium carbonate (1.66 g, 12.0 mmol). After stirring for 10 minutes, 5-chloro-N-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-2,4-difluoro-N-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-ylbenzenesulfonamide (Preparation 247, 2.67 g, 5.78 mmol) was added. After stirring at room temperature for 16 hours, the reaction solution was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. Purification by automated flash column chromatography using a 0-100% ethyl acetate/hexanes gradient and a 40 g column gave the title compound (3.20 g, 69%) as a clear oil.
