Dimethylformamide → HCID 89485502, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.30 g of 3-fluoro-4-[5-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran-2-yl]pyridine, 75 mg of methyl mercaptan sodium salt and 4 ml of DMF was stirred under ice-cooling for 1 hour. To this mixture was added 37 mg of methyl mercaptan sodium salt, and the mixture was stirred under ice-cooling for further 1 hour. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined and washed with water and saturated brine and dried over magnesium sulfate, then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to obtain 0.31 g of 3-methylthio-4-[5-(trifluoromethyl)benzofuran-2-yl]pyridine (hereinafter, referred to as “Present Active Compound 11”).
