Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

4-Nitro-2-fluorobenzoic acid (5.03 g) was dissolved in pyridine (60.0 ml), and N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (7.95 g), HOBt (5.50 g), and EDC (7.79 g) were added thereto. The obtained mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 15 hours. After the reaction mixture was allowed to cool, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. Water and ethyl acetate were added to the obtained residue, and extraction and washing were carried out. The organic layer was sequentially washed with a 1N hydrochloric acid aqueous solution, saturated sodium-bicarbonate aqueous solution, and saturated sodium chloride solution, and then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized with a mixed solvent of tert-butylmethylether and n-heptane to obtain Compound 14a (5.28 g, 85%) as an opalescent solid.
