Reaction Steps

2-Amino-4-chloro-5-cyanopyridine (200 mg, 1.30 mmol, Production example 215-3) was dissolved in ethoxyethanol (13.0 ml); 5-aminoindole-1-carboxylic acid phenylamide (408 mg, 1.62 mmol, Production example 201-2) and pyridine hydrochloride (315 mg, 2.73 mmol) were added thereto; and the reaction mixture was heated and stirred at 130° C. for 4 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was partitioned between a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogencarbonate and ethyl acetate; the organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (Fuji Silysia NH, hexane:ethyl acetate=2:3, ethyl acetate, ethyl acetate:methanol=95:5 in this order). The pale yellow oil obtained was solidified with diethyl ether; the crystals were suspended with diethyl ether, filtered off, washed with diethyl ether, and dried to yield the title compound (171 mg, 0.464 mmol, 35.7%) as colorless crystals.
