Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 8-bromo-4,5-dihydro-6-oxa-3-thia-1-aza-benzo[e]azulene-2-carbothioic acid (2-chloro-phenyl)-amide (160 mg), methanol (10 mL) and hydrazine hydrate (170 μL) was heated to reflux for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled and the solid collected by filtration. A mixture of this solid (144 mg) and triethyl orthoformate (5 mL) was heated to 90° C. for 2 hours and then to 130° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled and the solvent removed in vacuo and the residue purified using flash chromatography to yield 314 (55 mg). NMR: (CDCl3): 3.32 (2H, t), 4.36 (2H, t), 6.96 (1H, dd), 7.11-7.16 (2H, m), 7.49-7.68 (4H, m), 8.30 (1H, s). MS: (ESI+) MH+ 461
