Reaction Steps
Following the procedure as described in EXAMPLE 4 and making non-critical variations using 4-(chloromethyl)-2-isopropylthiazole to replace 2-(bromomethyl)tetrahydro-2H-pyran, and 2,3-dihydrospiro[furo[2,3-g][1,4]benzodioxine-8,3′-indol]-2′(1′H)-one to replace 5,6-dihydrospiro[benzo[1,2-b:5,4-b′]difuran-3,3′-indol]-2′(1′H)-one, 1′-{[2-(1-methylethyl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]methyl}-2,3-dihydrospiro[furo[2,3-g][1,4]benzodioxine-8,3′-indol]-2′(1′H)-one was obtained (95%) as a colorless solid: mp 60-63° C.; 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ7.28-7.21 (m, 1H), 7.16 (d, J=7.4 Hz, 1H), 7.06-6.98 (m, 2H), 6.92 (s, 1H), 6.50 (s, 1H), 6.26 (s, 1H), 5.15 (d, J=16.2 Hz, 1H), 4.95 (d, J=16.2 Hz, 1H), 4.93 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1H), 4.66 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1H), 4.22-4.08 (m, 4H), 3.37-3.22 (m, 1H), 1.39 (d, J=6.9 Hz, 6H); 13C NMR (75 MHz, CDCl3) δ 178.5, 177.2, 155.2, 150.2, 144.6, 142.1, 138.3, 132.2, 128.8, 123.7, 123.4, 121.1, 114.1, 111.6, 109.7, 99.4, 80.1, 64.5, 63.9, 58.1, 40.6, 33.3, 23.1; MS (ES+) m/z 434.9 (M+1).
