Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl {[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1-(pyridin-3-ylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl]methyl}methylcarbamate (293 mg) was dissolved in dichloromethane (1 mL), trifluoroacetic acid (1 mL) was added at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr. The reaction solution was basified by the dropwise addition to 6% aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by basic silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate=1:1→1:9) to give a free base of the title compound as a pale-yellow oil. The obtained free base was dissolved in ethyl acetate (5 mL). A 4 mol/L hydrogen chloride-ethyl acetate solution (1 mL) was added, and the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate-ethanol to give the title compound as colorless crystals (yield 110 mg, 40%).
