To a solution of 3-(1-cyano-1-methylethyl)benzoic acid (4.92 g, 26.0 mmol) produced in Example C6(ii) in oxalyl chloride (20 mL) was added N,N-dimethylformamide (0.1 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. Excessive reagent was evaporated under reduced pressure, the obtained residue was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL), and 5-amino-2-methoxyphenol (4.17 g, 30.0 mmol) and N-ethyl-N-(1-methylethyl)propan-2-amine (6.46 g, 50.0 mmol) were sequentially added dropwise under ice-cooling. The reaction solution was stirred at room temperature for 18 hr, and poured into water. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in methanol (5 mL)/tetrahydrofuran (5 mL), 8N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1 mL) was added under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hr. The reaction solution was poured into water, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=5:1) and triturated with diethyl ether to give the title compound (4.70 g, 58%) as a pale-yellow solid.
