Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 0.84 g of 4-[4-(3-benzyloxy-propyl)-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-thiazol-5-ylmethoxy]-2-fluoro-benzonitrile in 5 mL of tetrahydrofuran and 5.6 mL of methanol were added 1.14 g of hydroxylamine hydrochloride followed by 1.8 mL of triethylamine. The reaction mixture was stirred at reflux temperature for 2 h and then at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was refluxed for an additional 2 h and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was taken up into dichloromethane then water was added. The aqueous layer was separated and extracted three times with dichloromethane. The combined organic layers were washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to give 0.840 g of crude product as a yellow gum. Precipitation in heptane afforded 620 mg of 4-[4-(3-benzyloxy-propyl)-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-thiazol-5-ylmethoxy]-2-fluoro-N-hydroxy-benzamidine as a beige powder.
