Reaction Steps

To a cold (0° C.), stirred solution of 426 mg of N-(4-chlorobenzyl)-2-(hydroxymethyl)-4-methyl-7-oxo-3-{[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-4,7-dihydrothieno[3,2-b]pyridine-6-carboxamide and 0.46 mL of 2,4,6-collidine in 4 mL of dry DMF is added 0.17 mL of methanesulfonyl chloride. The ice bath is removed and the mixture is allowed to stir for 18 h, then is diluted slowly with water to a volume of 25 mL. The resulting solid is filtered, washed well with water, and dried in vacuo to furnish 429 mg of the title compound as a brown solid.
