Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 2-{(3,4-difluorophenyl) methylene}-3-oxobutyrate (8.8 .g, 36.6 mmol), O-methylisourea hydrogen sulfate (9.4 g, 55 mmol), and NaHCO3 (12.3 g, 0.146 mol) in DMF (30 mL) was stirred and heated at 70° C. for 16 hours. The mixture was cooled, diluted with EtOAc (300 mL) and washed with water (5×300 mL), brine (300 mL), and dried (MgSO4). Solvent was evaporated and the crude product was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel using 10% through 20% EtOAc in hexane as the gradient eluent, to leave the product as an oil (3.82 g, 30.2%)
