Participants

Reaction Steps

3-{4-[2-(4-Aminophenyl)ethoxy]phenyl}-(S)-2-ethoxypropanoic acid hydro chloride (described in Example 56a) (0.2 g; (0.547 mmole) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml). Sodium hydrogencarbonate (0.051 g; 0.607 mmole) was added and the mixture was stirred for a little while. 4-(Trifluoromethylthio)phenyl isocyanate (0.126 g; 0.575 mmole) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours and then evaporated to dryness. Ethyl acetate and water were added to the residue and the phases were separated. The organic phase was dried with magnesium sulfate and the solvent was evaporated. Chromatography of residue on silica gel (isolute, SI) using dichloromethane, methanol:dichloromethane (1:99) and then methanol:dichloromethane (2:98) as eluants gave 0.17 g (57% yield) of (S)-2-ethoxy-3-[4-(2-{4-[({4-[(trifluoromethyl)sulfanyl]anilino}carbonyl)amino]phenyl}ethoxy)phenyl]propanoic acid.
