Reaction Steps

A mixture of 212 mg (0.5 mmol) 4-[3-(4-bromo-phenyl)-5-methyl-isoxazole-4-carbonyl]-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (intermediate 2, step 2), 28 mg (0.66 mmol) NaH and 116 mg (0.65 mmol) iodomethane was stirred at room temperature for 24 h. The mixture was then diluted with water and the product extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were then dried with Na2SO4 and evaporated to yield 133 mg (61%) of the title compound as a light yellow solid after purification by chromatography on silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate/heptane. (m/e): 403.3/405.2 (M+H, 100%).
