Tetrahydrofuran → (5-{5-[3-Chloro-4-(3-fluorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl}-4-ethyl-2-thienyl)methanol

Participants

Reaction Steps

The crude product of the title compound was synthesized by conducting the reaction similar to that mentioned in Example 5 (5a) using 3-chloro-4-(3-fluorophenoxy)benzoic acid (0.14 g, 0.53 mmol) that was obtained in Example 16 (16a), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (0.086 g, 0.56 mmol), 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (0.11 g, 0.56 mmol), 5-({[t-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-3-ethyl-N′-hydroxythiophene-2-carboximidamide (0.16 g, 0.51 mmol) that was obtained in Example 10 (10d), and 1.0M solution of tetrabutylammoniumfluoride in tetrahydrofuran (1.0 mL, 1.0 mmol). Subsequently, the crude product of the title compound thus obtained was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column using a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate and hexane (2:8 to 5:5) as the eluent to afford the title compound (0.17 g) in a yield of 89% as a pale yellowish crystalline solid.
