Participants

Reaction Steps

At RT, 60 mg (0.11 mmol) of 2-chloro-6-({(2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)methyl}sulfanyl)-4-(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)pyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile (Example 2A) and 0.019 ml (0.22 mmol) of N-ethylmethylamine were stirred in 1.5 ml of THF for 30 min. About 15 ml of water were added to the reaction mixture, and the aqueous phase was extracted 3× with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were washed once with sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulfate, concentrated by evaporation and dried under high vacuum. This gave 63 mg (99% of theory) of the desired target compound.
