Reaction Steps

[step 4] 3,4-Diamino-5-methylbiphenyl (150 mg, 0.64 mmol) obtained in step 3 was suspended in acetic acid (4 mL), trimethyl ortho acetate (0.14 mL, 0.76 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 110° C. for 18 hr. Under ice-cooling, 28% aqueous ammonia solution (5 mL) was added to the mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (20 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (137 mg, 96%).
