Reaction Steps
Following the procedure as described in EXAMPLE 8 and making non-critical variations using 7′-fluoro-2,3-dihydrospiro[furo[2,3-g][1,4]benzodioxine-8,3′-indol]-2′(1′H)-one to replace spiro[furo[2,3-f][1,3]benzodioxole-7,3′-indol]-2′(1′H)-one, and 2-(bromomethyl)pyridine hydrobromide to replace (R)-(1,4-dioxan-2-yl)methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate, 7′-fluoro-1′-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-3,7-dihydro-2H-spiro[benzofuro[5,6-b][1,4]dioxine-8,3′-indolin]-2′-one was obtained (38%) as a colorless solid: mp 205-207° C.
