Participants

Reaction Steps

Dimethylation was performed using Method 2 described for Step C in Scheme I. To a solution of the isoxazole obtained from step 6 (1.0 equiv.) in dichloroethane was added aluminum chloride (5.0 equiv.) and ethane thiol (5.0 equiv.). The resultant mixture was stirred for 40 min at room temperature and quenched with THF, 20% HCl and water. A precipitate was formed and this was collected by filtration. After drying the product the material was taken up in methanol, treated with activated charcoal, filtered through sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Purification with flash chromatography followed by addition of HCl aq. and lyophilization, then afforded the product 4-[5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4-[4-(2-piperidylethoxy)phenyl]isoxazol-3-yl]phenol as hydrochloride salt.
