Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3′-fluoro-4′-{[5-oxo-4-(4-oxocyclohexyl)-7-propyl-4,5-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl]methyl}biphenyl-2-carbonitrile (3.5 g), cyclobutane-1,1-diyldimethanol (1 g), p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (0.014 g) and toluene (60 mL) was subjected to an azeotropic dehydration reaction by stirring at 110° C. for 16 hr in a reaction vessel equipped with a Dean-stark trap. The reaction mixture was concentrated, and the obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give the title compound as a colorless solid (3.6 g, 86%).
