Reaction Steps

Crude 5′-(5-cyano-1-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)spiro[cyclohexane-1,3′-[3H]indol]-2′-ylidenecyanamide (95.0 g; purity 78% HPLC area) in THF (250 mL) was treated with diethylamine (105 g) and refluxed with a concomitant addition of THF (3.35 L) until dissolved. The solvent was distilled off (2.5 L) during which a precipitate was formed. The flask was cooled to ambient temperature and the white precipitate was filtered, washed with ether and dried to give 58.0 g (61% yield) of purified 5′-(5-cyano-1-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)spiro[cyclohexane-1,3′-[3H]indol])-2′-ylidenecyanamide (purity >99% HPLC area).
