Dimethyl Sulfide → HCID 57476279, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of triphenylphosphine oxide (1.95 g) and acetonitrile (20 mL) was slowly added trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride (0.59 mL) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred for 10 min. N-[2-(Benzylthio)-3-morpholinopropyl]-7-[[(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)sulfonyl](methyl)amino]-4-methyl-1H-indole-2-carboxamide (1.10 g) and dimethylsulfide (0.20 mL) were added. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min. Saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated brine, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated. The residue was subjected to basic silica gel column chromatography to give the title compound (0.69 g, yield 76%) as colorless crystals from a fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (3:1, volume ratio). melting point 151-153° C.
