Reaction Steps

2-Methyl-2-({4-[2-({5-[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]pyrimidin-2-yl}amino)ethyl]-1,3-thiazol-2-yl}thio)propionic acid tert-butyl ester (620 mg) synthesized in Example 162-2 and methyl iodide (325 mg) were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (6.0 mL), potassium tertiary butoxide (154 mg) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (elution solvent; hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1) to give the title compound (215 mg) as a colorless oil.
