Reaction Steps

Ethyl cis-4-(4-{[hydrazino(oxo)acetyl]amino}phenoxy)cyclohexanecarboxylate (Intermediate 1, 698 mg, 2.00 mmol) was added in one portion to a stirred solution of 3,4-difluorophenyl isothiocyanate (411 mg, 2.40 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) and the reaction mixture was stirred at 65° C. for 30 mins. EDCI (461 mg, 2.40 mmol) was added in one portion and the reaction mixture was heated to 85° C. for 3 h. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and water (15 mL) was added and the resulting suspension was filtered to leave a cream solid. The solid was taken up in a mixture of MeOH (8 mL) and THF (4 mL) and a 2N aqueous solution of NaOH (4 mL) was added in one portion and the reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h. The reaction mixture was acidified by the addition of 2M HCl and the resulting precipitate was filtered, washed with water (10 mL) and dried under high vacuum to leave a solid. The solid was recrystallised from refluxing glacial acetic acid to give the title compound as a white solid (428 mg, 47%).
