Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of 5-fluoro-6-amino-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one (410 mg, 2.46 mmol) in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added with piperidine (0.3 ml). The mixture was cooled to −40° C. in an acetone-dry ice bath and added with acetic acid 1-chlorocarbonyl-1-methyl-ethyl ester (405 mg, 2.46 mmol) in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran dropwise. Upon the completion of the addition, the resulting mixture was stirred at the room temperature overnight until the precipitate was formed. The solid was filtered, washed with water and recrystallized from methanol to give acetic acid 1-(5-fluoro-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-6-ylcarbamoyl)-1-methyl-ethyl ester (720 mg, 99.5%) as a white solid.
