Reaction Steps

To 3-cyano-4-methoxy-5-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid (8.10 g), toluene (160 mL), N,N-dimethylformamide (5 droplets) and thionyl chloride (4.80 mL) were added, and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 16 hours. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure and the obtained residue was azeotroped with toluene and then used for the synthesis of (i).
