Reaction Steps

6′-(3-Fluoropropoxy)-4-methoxyspiro[cyclohexane-1,2′-inden]-1′(3′H)-imine (Example 20v, Step 2, 204 mg, 0.67 mmol), trimethyl orthoformate (0.193 mL, 1.76 mmol) and 2-propanol (5 mL) was added to a MW vial. The vial was sealed and the mixture was heated at 60° C. (oil bath). 2-Oxopropanethioamide (Intermediate 2, 138 mg, 1.34 mmol) in MeOH (15 mL) was added and the resulting mixture was stirred overnight at 60° C. and was then concentrated in vacuo. The product was isolated using flash chromatography (0-50% EtOAc in heptane) to give the title compound (167 mg, 64% yield): MS (ES+) m/z 391 [M+H]1.
