Reaction Steps

3-{5-[(4R)-4-Ethyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl]-1H-pyrrol-2-yl}-5-{[(2S)-1-methoxypropan-2-yl]oxy}phenol (272 mg, 0.79 mmol) synthesized in Example (108b) was dissolved in acetonitrile (5.0 mL), and 2-chloro-5-(methylsulfonyl)pyrazine (220 mg, 1.14 mmol) synthesized in Example (97c) and cesium carbonate (640 mg, 1.96 mmol) were added at room temperature, followed by stirring at room temperature for 3.5 hours under nitrogen atmosphere. To this reaction solution, water (20 mL) was added, and extraction was carried out with methylene chloride (30 mL). The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and subsequently dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was purified using silica gel column chromatography (elution solvent: methanol/methylene chloride=2%-3%) to afford the desired compound (417 mg, yield ˜100%) as a pale yellow solid.
