Participants

Reaction Steps

By the method of Example 1, Step K, 1.35 g (0.0049 mole) of 4-(4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(1H)-on-1-yl)-3-fluorothiophenol and 3.0 g (0.011 mole) of methyl 2-(2-chloromethyl-5-chlorophenoxy)propionate (Example 2, Step F) were reacted in the presence of 1.02 g (0.0074 mole) of anhydrous potassium carbonate in 75 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide, yielding 0.54 g of methyl 2-[2-[4-(4-difluoromethyl-4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-5(1H)-on-1-yl)-3-fluorophenylthiomethyl]-5-chlorophenoxy]propionate as a yellow syrup. The NMR spectrum was consistent with the proposed structure. NMR: 1.65 (d, 3H, JHH =8.0 Hz); 2.44 (s, 3H); 3.78 (s, 3H); 4.20 (dd, 2H, JHH =13.0 Hz); 4.78 (q, 1H, JHH =8.0 Hz); 6.70-7.38 (m, 7H).
