Reaction Steps

2-{[(3,5-Bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-(5-morpholin-4-yl-pyrimidin-2-yl)-amino]-methyl}-4-trifluoromethyl-phenol (150 mg) is dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (4 ml), and thereto are added ethyl 4-bromo-butyrate (74 μl) and potassium carbonate (71 mg) and the mixture is stirred at 80° C. overnight. To the reaction solution are added water and ethyl acetate, and the mixture is separated, and the organic layer is washed with a saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=22:3→7:3) to give ethyl 4-(2-{[(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-(5-morpholin-4-yl-pyrimidin-2-yl)-amino]-methyl}-4-trifluoromethyl-phenoxy)-butyrate (123 mg). MS (m/z): 695 [M+H]+
