Participants

Reaction Steps

N-{4-[(2-Aminopyridin-4-yl)oxy]-2,5-difluorophenyl}-N′-(4-fluorophenyl)cyclopropane-1,1-dicarboxamide (108.2 mg) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (2.5 ml) under a nitrogen atmosphere, and triethylamine (0.100 ml) and phenyl chloroformate (0.080 ml) were added dropwise at room temperature in this order, followed by stirring for 15 min. The reaction mixture was stirred after addition of ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was separated, washed with a 1N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, water and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (2.5 ml). Triethylamine (0.256 ml) and 3-(hydroxymethyl)azetidine hydrochloride (182 mg) were added at room temperature, followed by stirring overnight. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with a 1N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, water and brine in this order, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent; ethyl acetate, then ethyl acetate:methanol=95:5). Fractions containing the target compound were concentrated under reduced pressure. To the resultant residue was added tert-butyl methyl ether:heptane=1:2 to precipitate a solid. The solid was collected by filtration and dried under aeration to provide the titled compound as white powder (38.1 mg, 28%).
