Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of ethyl (3S,4R)-4-{[(3,4-dichloro-5-methyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)carbonyl]amino}-3-propoxypiperidine-1-carboxylate (Intermediate 77, 3.3 g, 8.12 mmol) potassium hydroxide (4.55 g, 81.2 mmol), and hydrazine hydrate (4.06 g, 81.2 mmol) in ethylene glycol (100 mL) was stirred for 60 h at 120° C. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and poured into water (300 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×300 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate, filtered, and concentrated under vacuum to afford 3,4-dichloro-5-methyl-N-[(3S,4R)-3-propoxypiperidin-4-yl]-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxamide 1.5 mg, (62.5%) as solid.
