Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-aminooxy-N-methyl-acetamide (1.71 g, 16.4 mmol) obtained in Step B in a mixed solvent of methylene chloride (50 ml) and THF (25 ml) was added 3,4-difluoro-2-(2-fluoro-4-iodo-phenylamino)-5-formyl-N-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-benzamide (3.94 g, 8.20 mmol) obtained in Step F of Example 1 at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred for 15 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and methylene chloride (40 ml) was added to the resultant residue to precipitate a solid, which was filtered and washed with methylene chloride. The resultant solid was dried under reduced pressure to give (E)-3,4-difluoro-2-(2-fluoro-4-iodo-phenylamino)-N-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-5-[methylcarbamoylmethoxyimino-methyl]-benzamide (3.57 g, 77%) as a white solid.
