Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(4′-methylbiphenyl-2-carboxamido)-N-methyl-N-[2-(5-chloropentyloxy)phenyl]benzamide (800 mg) in N,N-dimethylformamide (15 ml) was added Potassium phthalimide (821 mg) and sodium iodide (cat.) at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled and extracted with ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine. The organic solution was dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by evaporation and subjected to silica gel column chromatography (SiO2; 50 g, 0.5% methanol in chloroform) to give 4-(4′-methylbiphenyl-2-carboxamido)-N-methyl-N-[2-(5-phthalimidopentyloxy)phenyl]benzamide (1.1 g).
