HCID 59140396, compound → 2-{difluoro[4-(5-fluoropyridin-2-yl)phenyl]acetyl}-4-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)-N,N-dimethyl-1H-imidazole-1-sulfonamide

Reaction Steps

n-Butyllithium (1.6 M in hexane) (0.60 mL, 0.96 mmol) was added to a −78° C. solution of 4-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)-N,N-dimethyl-1H-imidazole-1-sulfonamide (234 mg, 0.96 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL). After stirring at −78° C. for 10 min, 2,2-difluoro-2-[4-(5-fluoropyridin-2-yl)phenyl]-N-methoxy-N-methylacetamide (296 mg, 0.96 mmol) was added and the reaction allowed to warm to ambient temperature, quenched with water and extracted with methylene chloride and ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were dried (magnesium sulfate) and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography over silica eluting with 0-50% ethyl acetate/hexane afforded 2-{difluoro[4-(5-fluoropyridin-2-yl)phenyl]acetyl}-4-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)-N,N-dimethyl-1H-imidazole-1-sulfonamide.
