Cesium carbonate → {5-[4-Cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-ylmethoxy]-indol-1-yl}-acetic acid ethyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

In analogy to the procedure described in example 1 h], 5-chloromethyl-4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidine was reacted with (5-hydroxy-indol-1-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester (example 1 c]) in the presence of cesium carbonate to give {5-[4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-ylmethoxy]-indol-1-yl}-acetic acid ethyl ester, which was subsequently treated with lithium hydroxide in analogy to the procedure described in example 1 i] to yield {5-[4-cyclopropyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-pyrimidin-5-ylmethoxy]-indol-1-yl}-acetic acid.
