Tetrahydrofuran → (4-Ethyl-5-{5-[4-(3-fluorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl}-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 10 (10f) using 5-({[t-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}methyl)-3-ethyl-N′-hydroxythiophene-2-carboximidamide (0.16 g, 0.50 mmol) that was obtained in Example 10 (10d), 4-(3-fluorophenoxy)benzoic acid (0.13 g, 0.55 mmol) that was obtained in Example 17 (17a), N,N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (0.11 g, 0.55 mmol), and 1.0 M solution of tetrabutylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran (0.75 mL, 0.75 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 (3:7 to 5:5) as the eluent to afford the title compound (0.15 g) in a yield of 73% as a white crystalline solid.
