Water → 2-(Azetidin-1-yl)-6-({(2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)methyl}sulfanyl)-4-(4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl)pyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

At RT, 100 mg (0.19 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 0.015 ml (0.22 mmol) of azetidine were stirred in 2.5 ml of THF overnight. Another 0.025 ml (0.36 mmol) of azetidine was then added, and the mixture was once more stirred at RT overnight. About 10 ml of water were added to the reaction mixture, and the precipitate formed was filtered off, washed with water and dried under high vacuum. This gave 85 mg (82% of theory) of the desired target compound.
