Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 1-(3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)piperazine (3.8 g) described in Preparation Example 47, 4-bromo-2-methylbenzoic acid (4.3 g) and 4-(4,6-dimethoxy[1.3.5]triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride hydrate (DMT-MM) (8.8 g) were added chloroform (30 mL) and methanol (30 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. After evaporation of the solvent, ethyl acetate was added, and insoluble materials were filtered off. The solvent in the filtrate was evaporated, and the residue was purified by column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate) to give the title compound (7 g).
