Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of ethyl 3-((6-chloro-7-fluoro-1-(1-propyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl)thio)-2-fluorobenzoate 1 (Example 7, Step 1; 100 mg, 0.21 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (3 mL) was added NCS (33.7 mg, 0.25 mmol) at RT under inert atmosphere. After 8 h stirring, additional NCS (33.7 mg, 0.25 mmol) was added at RT and stirred again for 24 h. The reaction was monitored by TLC; after completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was diluted with water (20 mL) and extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×20 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (15 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the crude. This was purified by silica gel column chromatography using 9-11% EtOAc/Hexanes to afford compound 2 (50 mg, 47%) as an off-white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.71-7.67 (m, 1H), 7.66 (s, 1H), 7.64 (s, 1H), 7.30 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.18 (dd, J=8.4, 6.0 Hz, 1H), 7.04-6.97 (m, 2H), 4.40 (q, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 4.18 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 2.04-1.93 (m, 2H), 1.40 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3H), 0.97 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 3H); LC-MS (ESI): 98.8%; m/z 510.4 (M+H+); (column: X Select CSH C-18, 50×3.0 mm, 3.5 μm); RT 4.94 min; 5 mM NH4OAc: ACN; 0.8 mL/min).
