Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-isothiocyanato-2-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile (1a) (0.638 g, 2.8 mmol) and [4-(1-cyanocyclobutylamino)phenyl]acetic acid (46a) (0.46 g, 2.0 mmol) in DMF (5 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 15 hours. To this mixture were added methanol (20 ml) and aq. 2N HCl (10 ml). The second mixture was refluxed for 1 h. After being cooled to room temperature, the reaction mixture was poured into cold water (10 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×50 ml). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, concentrated and chromatographed (dichloromethane pure and then dichloromethane:acetone, 95:5) to yield {4-[7-(4-cyano-3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-8-oxo-6-thioxo-5,7-diaza-spiro[3.4]oct-5-yl]phenyl}acetic acid methyl ester (46b) [RD146] (0.532 g, 1.124 mmol, 56%), the structure of which is illustrated in Formula 15, as a white powder.
