Participants

Reaction Steps

1-Benzothiazol-6-yl-3-(4-methyl-pyridin-3-yl)-1-(2-oxo-butyl)-urea (I-168b: 185 mg, 0.522 mmol) in toluene (15 mL) was refluxed at 120° C. for 20 hours. The reaction was monitored by TLC (5% MeOH in chloroform). The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the crude residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (2.5% methanol in chloroform) to afford 50 mg of the product (28.57% yield).
