Reaction Steps
Following the procedure as described in EXAMPLE 12 and making non-critical variations using 2-fluoroaniline to replace cyclohexanemethylamine, and 4-[(2′-oxo-5,6-dihydrospiro[benzo[1,2-b:5,4-b′]difuran-3,3′-indol]-1′(2′H)-yl)methyl]benzoic acid to replace 3-[(2′-oxo-5,6-dihydrospiro[benzo[1,2-b:5,4-b′]difuran-3,3′-indol]-1′(2′H)-yl)methyl]benzoic acid, N-(2-fluorophenyl)-4-[(2′-oxo-5,6-dihydrospiro[benzo[1,2-b:5,4-b′]difuran-3,3′-indol]-1′(2′H)-yl)methyl]benzamide was obtained (75%) as a colorless solid: 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ8.42 (ddd, J=8.1, 8.1, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 8.16-7.99 (m, 1H), 7.88 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.47 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.25-7.01 (m, 6H), 6.77 (d, J=7.7 Hz, 1H), 6.49 (s, 1H), 6.43 (s, 1H), 5.03 (ABq, 2H), 4.86 (ABq, 2H), 4.55 (t, J=8.6 Hz, 2H), 3.10-2.91 (m, 2H); 13C NMR (75 MHz, CDCl3) δ177.9, 164.8, 161.8, 161.3, 152.7 (d, J=243.1 Hz), 141.7, 140.1, 134.0, 132.6, 128.7, 127.7 (2C), 126.3 (d, J=9.8 Hz, 2C), 124.7, 124.6 (d, J=3.9 Hz), 124.0, 123.6, 121.8, 119.9 (2C), 118.7, 114.8 (d, J=19.2 Hz, 2C), 109.0, 93.2, 80.6, 72.3, 57.7, 43.7, 29.0; MS (ES+) m/z 507.1 (M+1).
