Reaction Steps

4-(2-{2-[(2-tert-Butoxy-1,1-dimethyl-2-oxoethyl)thio]-1,3-thiazol-4-yl}ethoxy)benzoic acid (500 mg) obtained in Example 60-2 and aniline (132 mg) were dissolved in dichloromethane (6 mL), N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N′-ethylcarbodiimide (EDC) hydrochloride (339 mg) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) (217 mg) were successively added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (elution solvent; hexane:ethyl acetate=2:1) to give the title compound (480 mg) as a white solid.
