Reaction Steps

N-Ethyl-N-{2-[5-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-4-methyl-1H-indol-7-yl}thiophene-2-sulfonamide (0.27 g) was dissolved in absolute tetrahydrofuran (10 ml). This solution was ice-cooled, thionyl chloride (0.080 ml) and N,N-dimethylformamide (one drop) were added, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hr under ice-cooling, and then at room temperature for 2 hr. The reaction solution was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained yellow oil was crystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to give the title compound (0.26 g, yield 93%) as pale-yellow prism crystals. melting point 177-178° C.
