Procedure
A solution (0.2 M) of methyl 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-cyclohexyl-4H-thieno[3,2-b]pyrrole-2-carboxylate (prepared as described in example 13, step 4) in DMF was treated with NaH (2 eq., 60% dispersion in mineral oil), and the suspension was stirred at RT for 30 min, then tert-butyl bromoacetate (3 eq.) was added. The reaction mixture was heated at 50° C. for 2 h then cooled down and diluted with AcOEt. The organic phase was washed sequentially with aqueous HCl (1 N), aqueous NaHCO3 (saturated solution) and brine and dried. Evaporation of the solvent gave a residue that was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (1:9 AcOEt/petroleum ether) to afford the title compound (93%).
