Reaction Steps

66% sodium hydride (0.26 g, 1.2 equivalents) was washed with n-hexane and was then suspended in DMF of 1 ml, and the mixture was stirred under ice-cooling. To the resulting mixture was added 4-(4-ethylpiperazin-1-yl)-6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)thieno[3,2-c]pyridine of 2.00 g (5.88 mmol) dissolved in DMF of 20 ml, followed by the agitation at room temperature for 45 min. To the resulting product was added 1-bromo-O-(t-butyl)diphenylsilyl-2-propanol of 4.44 g (2.0 equivalents) dissolved in DMF of 15 ml, which was stirred in nitrogen atmosphere at 50° C. for 18 hr. Water was added to the resulting mixture, and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed sequentially with water (three times) and brine, and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated, and the resulting residue was purified by NH-silica gel column chromatography (eluent solvent/ethyl acetate system), to give the title compound as a pale yellow oil (3.38 mg, yield; 90%).
