Participants

Reaction Steps

{4-Difluoromethoxy-3-[4-nitro-2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethylsulfanylmethyl)-phenoxy]-phenyl}-acetic acid methyl ester was reduced to {3-[4-amino-2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethylsulfanylmethyl)-phenoxy]-4-difluoromethoxy-phenyl}-acetic acid methyl ester as described in Example 21, Step 9, which was treated with pivaloyl chloride as described in Example 21, Step 10 to provide {4-difluoromethoxy-3-[4-(2,2-dimethyl-propionylamino)-2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-ethylsulfanylmethyl)-phenoxy]-phenyl}-acetic acid methyl ester. Hydrolysis of the ester to the acid was carried out as described in Example 21, Step 11.
