Thioanisole → HCID 68462925, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of triphenylphosphine oxide (1.0 g) in dichloromethane (4 mL) was slowly added trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride (0.46 mL) under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. A solution of N-[2-(benzylthio)-3-morpholinopropyl]-7-[methyl(pyridin-2-ylsulfonyl)amino]-5-[3-(methylsulfonyl)propoxy]-1H-indole-2-carboxamide (0.88 g) and thioanisole (0.61 mL) in dichloromethane (25 mL) was added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred for 90 min under ice-cooling. The reaction solution was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate:hexane=50:50-85:15), and the obtained colorless oil was crystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to give the title compound (174 mg, yield: 23%) as colorless prism crystals. MS: 608 (MH+). melting point 168-169° C.
