Reaction Steps

Under an argon atmosphere, to DME (12.5 mL) that had been ice-cooled was added Nall (60% oil, 203 mg), followed by stirring for 10 minutes. To this mixture was added dropwise a solution of ethyl 3-(1,1-dioxidothiomorpholin-4-yl)-3-oxopropanoate (1.40 g) in DME (10 mL), followed by stirring at the same temperature for 30 minutes. Then, 4-chloro-6-(4,4-dimethylcyclohexyl)-2-methylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine (750 mg) was added thereto, followed by stirring at 60° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was left to be cooled, and then a saturated aqueous NH4Cl solution was added thereto, followed by extraction with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed sequentially with water and brine, dried over MgSO4, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column to obtain ethyl 2-[6-(4,4-dimethylcyclohexyl)-2-methylthieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl]-3-(1,1-dioxidothiomorpholin-4-yl)-3-oxopropanoate (559 mg).
