Reaction Steps

5-(2-methoxyethoxy)-7-[methyl(pyridin-2-ylsulfonyl)amino]-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid (2.50 g), 2-(benzylthio)-3,3-dimethoxypropan-1-amine (1.79 g), diisopropylethylamine (2.00 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide (30 mL) was added O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU, 3.19 g) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2.5 days. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed successively with aqueous citric acid solution, saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate and saturated brine, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated. The obtained residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and eluted with hexane-ethyl acetate (1:1-1:4, volume ratio) to give the title compound (3.11 g, yield 80%) as a colorless amorphous solid.
