Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-(5-methoxy-2-phenylindol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine-2-carboxamidoxime (123 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (2 mL) was added 1,1′-thiocarbonyldiimidazole (71 mg). This mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. To the reaction mixture was added water, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. To the residue was added tetrahydrofuran (2 mL), and subsequently boron trifluoride ethyl ether complex (0.21 mL) was added thereto under ice-cooling. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 days. To the reaction mixture was added water, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with 1 mol/L hydrochloric acid and water successively, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluting solvent: dichloromethane-methanol) to obtain the title compound (24 mg). 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ ppm: 3.77 (3H, s), 5.55 (2H, s), 6.45-6.55 (1H, m), 6.60-6.70 (1H, m), 6.77 (1H, dd, J=2.5, 8.9 Hz), 7.14 (1H, d, J=2.5 Hz), 7.28 (1H, d, J=8.9 Hz), 7.35-7.60 (5H, m), 7.75-7.95 (2H, m), 13.35 (1H, br s). ESI-MS (m/z): 415 (M+H)+
