Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4′-{[5-oxo-4-(4-oxocyclohexyl)-7-propyl-4,5-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl]methyl}biphenyl-2-carbonitrile (0.75 g), cyclopentane-1,2-diol (0.42 g), p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (0.018 g) and toluene (30 mL) was subjected to an azeotropic dehydration reaction by stirring at 110° C. for 16 hr in a reaction vessel equipped with a Dean-stark trap. The reaction mixture was concentrated, and the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give the title compound as a colorless solid (1.2 g, 100%).
