Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-isothiocyanato-2-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile (1a) (0.228 g, 1.0 mmol) and 1-(2-fluoro-4-hydroxyphenylamino)-cyclobutanecarbonitrile (53b) (0.145 g, 0.7 mmol) in dry DMF (2 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. To this mixture were added methanol (10 ml) and aq. 2M HCl (2 ml). The second mixture was refluxed for I hour. After being cooled to room temperature, the reaction mixture was poured into cold water (10 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (50 ml). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, concentrated and chromatographed (dichloromethane pure and then dichloromethane:acetone, 90:10) to yield 4-[5-(2-fluoro-4-hydroxyphenyl)-8-oxo-6-thioxo-5,7-diazaspiro[3.4]oct-7-yl]-2-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile (53c) [RD163] (0.17 g, 0.39 mmol, 56%), the structure of which is illustrated in Formula 29, as a off-white powder.
