Reaction Steps

4-(1H-5-Indolyloxy)-2-pyridinamine (2.50 g, 11.1 mmol, CAS No. 417722-11-3), which was described in WO 02/32872, was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 ml); sodium hydride (0.530 g, 13.3 mmol) was added thereto at room temperature; and the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. Phenyl N-cyclopentylcarbamate (2.50 g, 12.2 mmol) was added thereto at room temperature while stirring; and the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. Water was added to the reaction mixture; and the precipitated crystals were filtered off, and washed with water. This crystals were dissolved in methanol, and purified by silica gel column chromatography (Fuji Silysia NH; hexane:ethyl acetate=1:1, ethyl acetate, ethyl acetate:methanol=98:2 in this order). The obtained crystals were suspended in hexane: ethanol=10:1, filtered off, washed with hexane, and dried under aeration to yield the title compound as colorless crystals (2.08 g, 6.18 mmol, 55.7%).
