Reaction Steps

In 1 ml of chloroform was dissolved 100 mg of ethyl 2-[6-(3-amino-1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-(2,4-difluorophenylamino)-5-fluoronicotinoyl]acetate, and 26 mg of acetic anhydride was added thereto, after which the resulting mixture was subjected to reaction at room temperature for 30 minutes. Subsequently, the reaction mixture was added to a mixture of 1 ml of water and 1 ml of chloroform, and the organic layer was separated, washed successively with 1 ml of water and 1 ml of saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution and then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure, and to the crystalline material thus obtained was added 0.5 ml of diisopropyl ether, after which crystals were collected by filtration to obtain 80 mg (yield 72.8%) of ethyl 2-[6-(3-acetylamino-1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-(2,4-difluorophenylamino)-5-fluoronicotinoyl]acetate. The physical properties of this compound were identical with those of the compound obtained in Example 19.
