Participants

Reaction Steps

Using 5-amino-2-methylphenol (6.00 g, 48.5 mmol), 3-(1-cyanocyclopropyl)benzoic acid (6.00 g, 48.5 mmol) produced in Example A1(iii), oxalyl chloride (6.40 mL, 73.0 mmol), N,N-dimethylformamide (40 μL), tetrahydrofuran (250 mL), sodium hydrogencarbonate (6.20 g, 73.0 mmol) and water (60 mL) as starting materials, and in the same manner as in Example A32(i), the title compound (12.4 g, 87%) was obtained as a white powder. The title compound was washed with a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate and hexane.
