Reaction Steps

To N-(4-{2-[4-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)thiophen-2-yl]vinyl}-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (1.418 g, 4.398 mmol) were added acetic acid (16.8 ml), tetrahydrofuran (5.6 ml) and water (5.6 ml), and the mixture was stirred at 55° C. for 2.5 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated, and diisopropyl ether was added. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration, washed with diisopropyl ether and dried under reduced pressure to give N-{4-[2-(4-formylthiophen-2-yl)vinyl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}acetamide (1.136 g, 4.081 mmol, yield 92.8%) as a pale-yellow solid.
