Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-[4-(cyclopropylsulfonyl)phenyl]-5-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)pent-1-en-3-one (2.47 g) in ethanol (35 mL) were added methyl 6-formylpyridine-3-carboxylate (1.29 g), 3-benzyl-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-methyl-1,3-thiazol-3-ium chloride (191 mg) and triethylamine (0.397 mL), and the mixture was stirred at 70° C. for 2.5 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed successively with water and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=20:80-70:30, volume ratio) to give colorless crystals. To a solution of the obtained crystals in acetic acid (50 mL) was added ammonium acetate (3.41 g), and the mixture was stirred at 110° C. for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was neutralized with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed successively with water and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=20:80-80:20, volume ratio), and recrystallized from hexane-ethyl acetate to give the title compound (1.76 g, yield 50%) as pale-yellow crystals. MS: 495 (MH+). melting point 150-152° C.
