Procedure

A mixture of N-cyclopropyl-N′-{2-[(3-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)amino]pyridin-3-yl}ethanediamide (C3) (from the preceding step, 8.86 g, ≦16.6 mmol) and ethane-1,2-diol (27 mL) was stirred at 200° C. for 1 hour. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was diluted with water (100 mL) and aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1 M, 100 mL), then extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification using silica gel chromatography (Gradient: 5% to 50% ethyl acetate in heptane) was followed by recrystallization from 3:1 toluene/heptane, to afford the product as a solid. Yield: 2.52 g, 8.12 mmol, 49% over three steps.
