Reaction Steps

A mixture of (Z)-5-fluoro-4-[1-iodo-3-oxo-3-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-propenyl]-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one (from Example 8 above) (600 mg, 1.28 mmol) and neat tert-butyl-N-(2-mercaptoethyl)-carbamate (Aldrich, 19 mL) was treated with NaH (Aldrich, 460 mg, 19.15 mmol) in small portions e within a period of 30 minutes at room temperature. After the evolution of hydrogen had stopped, the mixture was heated gradually to 120° C. The viscous slurry was stirred at this temperature for 2 hours and then allowed to cool. The mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The aqueous layer was extracted twice more with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layer was dried and concentrated to give a solid residue. This residue was washed with pentane and purified by HPLC (silica gel, 25% ethyl acetate in hexanes), followed by precipitation out of THF with excess pentane to give [2-[6-fluoro-2-oxo-3-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-1,2-dihydro-benzo[cd]indol-5-ylsulfanyl]-ethyl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester as a yellow solid. (Yield 470 mg, 84%).
