Reaction Steps

(−)-4-(((1-Propylimidazol-5-yl)methyl)sulfinyl)aniline di-p-toluoyl-D-tartarate monohydrate (620 mg) was dissolved in ethyl acetate (10 ml) and 1N hydrochloric acid (3.16 ml), followed by separation. To the aqueous layer was added an aqueous 25% potassium carbonate solution (3.16 ml), followed by extraction with 2-propanol-ethyl acetate (1:4) twice. The organic layers were combined and washed with saturated brine, dried with magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. To the resulting residue was added tetrahydrofuran, after which the solvent was distilled off again under reduced pressure to give (−)-4-(((1-propylimidazol-5-yl)methyl)sulfinyl)aniline. Then, to a solution of 8-(4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl)-1-((1-methyl pyrazol-4-yl)methyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-benzoazocine-5-carboxylic acid (350 mg) in dichloromethane (10 ml) was added a drop of DMF, and then oxalyl chloride (0.081 ml) was added, and the mixture was stirred under nitrogen atmosphere for 1 hour. The resulting solution was added dropwise to a solution of (−)-4-(((1-propylimidazol-5-yl)methyl)sulfinyl)aniline and triethylamine (2.6 ml) in dichloromethane (10 ml) at 0° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. The mixture was returned to room temperature and stirred for 3 hours, after which water was added and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with 10% aqueous acetic acid solution twice, with aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate solution twice, and with saturated brine once, after which the resultant was dried with magnesium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure, the resultant was separated and purified with a basic silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate→methanol:ethyl acetate=1:9) to give (−)-8-[4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl]-1-((1-methylpyrazol-4-yl)methyl)-N-[4-[[[1-propylimidazol-5-yl]methyl]sulfinyl]phenyl]-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-benzoazocine-5-carboxamide (98.3 mg) (Compound 34) as a yellow amorphous material.
