Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A suspension of hydroxylamine hydrochloride (5.14 g) and sodium hydrogen carbonate (7.31 g) in dimethyl sulfoxide (30 mL) was stirred at 40° C. for 30 min, and then 4′-({1-[4-(1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]dec-8-yloxy)phenyl]-2-ethyl-6-oxo-4-propyl-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-5-yl}methyl)biphenyl-2-carbonitrile (5.13 g) was added to the mixture, and the mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 12 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the precipitated solid was collected by filtration. The obtained solid was dissolved in ethyl acetate. The solution was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (40 mL), and then 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (2.12 g, 13.1 mmol) and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene (2.0 mL, 13.1 mmol) were added thereto. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, and the mixture was successively washed with water and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give the title compound as a pale yellow amorphous solid (3.63 g, 64%).
