Reaction Steps

To the solution of 3-[5-bromo-4-(3-methoxy-phenyl)-thiazol-2-ylmethoxy]-2,6-difluoro-benzamide (0.50 g, 1.10 mmol) in the 10 ml of acetic acid was added Zn dust (0.50 g, w/w). The reaction mixture was heated at 120° C. for 1 h. After the completion of the reaction mixture (TLC monitoring), water (50 mL) was added and pH was adjusted to 8-9 with NaOH solution and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The combined organics was washed with water, brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to get the desired product (0.22 g, 53%).
