Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-(4-{[5-chloro-2-nitro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]amino}phenyl)ethanol (Example 104, step 1, 8.1 g, 22.4 mmol) and pyridine (1.8 ml, 22.45 mmol) in dichloromethane (200 ml) was added acetyl chloride (1.6 ml, 22.4 mmol) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 45 min. The mixture was added water (50 ml) and extracted with dichloromethane (300 ml). The organic layer was washed with brine (100 ml), then dried (Na2SO4). After removal of solvent, the crude product was purified by flash column chromatography eluting with hexane/ethyl acetate (2:1) to afford 8.6 g (95%) of the title compound as yellow solids.
