Participants

Reaction Steps

[3-(2-Bromomethyl-4-nitro-phenoxy)-4-chloro-phenyl]-acetic acid ethyl ester was treated with 2-propanethiol as described in Example 21, Step 8 to provide [4-chloro-3-(2-isopropylsulfanylmethyl-4-nitro-phenoxy)-phenyl]-acetic acid ethyl ester, which was reduced to [3-(4-amino-2-isopropylsulfanylmethyl-phenoxy)-4-chloro-phenyl]-acetic acid ethyl ester as described in Example 21, Step 9. Treatment of the amine with pivaloyl chloride as described in Example 21, Step 10 provided {4-chloro-3-[4-(2,2-dimethyl-propionylamino)-2-isopropylsulfanylmethyl-phenoxy]-phenyl}-acetic acid ethyl ester. Hydrolysis of the ester to the acid was carried out as described in Example 21, Step 11.
