Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of N-(7-bromo-3-(4-isopropylphenyl)-4,6-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-5-yl)-3,3-dimethylbutanamide (0.5 g, 1.09 mmol) obtained in Example 35 and copper cyanide (300 mg 3.27 mmol) in dimethylsulfoxide (30 mL) was heated at 180° C. for 14 hours. To the reaction solution was added aqueous ammonia and the product was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extracts were washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate 3:1) to obtain 360 mg (yield: 82%) of the title compound. Melting point: 135-136° C. (hexane-ethyl acetate).
