Reaction Steps

A solution of 126 mg (mmol) 4-(2-[1,2,3]triazol-1-yl-ethanesulfinylmethyl)-phenol in 4.0 ml N,N-dimethylformamide was treated at 0° C. with 14 mg (0.55 mmol) of 95% sodium hydride and stirred at 0° C. for 30 min., then 143 mg (0.50 mmol) 3-chloromethyl-2-methyl-6-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyridine were added and stirring continued over night. After addition of 8 ml water, the precipitate was isolated, washed thoroughly with water, methanol/water 1:1, and a small amount of ether. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica (eluent: ethyl acetate/methanol 9:1) to give 130 mg (52%) of the title compound as white powder.
