The processes 1 to 9 for preparing the object
compound (I) of the present invention are explained in detail in the fo llowing. Process 1
The object compound (I-a) or a salt thereof can be prepared by reacting the compound (II) or a salt thereof with the compound (III) or a salt thereof.
This reaction is usually carried out in a solvent such as alcohol [e.g. methanol, ethanol, etc.],
dichloromethane, benzene, N,N-dimethylformamide,
tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether or any other solvent which does not adversely affect the reaction.
The reaction may be carried out in the presence of an inorganic or an organic base such as an alkali metal hydroxide [e.g. sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, etc.], an alkali metal carbonate [e.g. sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, etc.], an alkali metal bicarbonate [e.g. sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, etc.], alkali metal hydride (e.g. sodium hydride, potassium hydride, etc.), tri(lower)alkylamine [e.g. trimethylamine, triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, etc.], pyridine or its derivative [e.g. picoline, lutidine,
4-dimethylaminopyridine, etc.], or the like. In case that the base to be used is liquid, it can also be used as a solvent.
The reaction temperature is not critical, and the reaction can be carried out under cooling, at room
temperature or under warming or heating.
Process 2
The object compound (I) or a salt thereof can be prepared by reacting the compound (IV) or a salt thereof with the compound (V) or a salt thereof.
This reaction can be carried out in substantially the same manner as Process 1, and therefore the reaction mode and reaction conditions [e.g. solvents, reaction
temperature, etc.] of this reaction are to be referred to those as explained in Process 1. Process 3
The object compound (I-b) or a salt thereof can be prepared by reacting the compound (VI) or a salt thereof with the compound (VII) or a salt thereof.
This reaction can be carried out in substantially the same manner as Process 1, and therefore the reaction mode and reaction conditions [e.g. solvents, reaction
temperature, etc.] of this reaction are to be referred to those as explained in Process 1.
Process 4
The object compound (I-c) or a salt thereof can be prepared by reacting the compound (VII) or a salt thereof with the compound (III) or a salt thereof.
This reaction can be carried out in substantially the same manner as Process 1, and therefore the reaction mode and reaction conditions [e.g. solvents, reaction
temperature, etc.] of this reaction are to be referred to those as explained in Process 1.
The present reaction includes, within its scope, the case that when R is carboxy, it is protected during the reacting or at the post-treating step of the present process. Process 5
The object compound (I-e) or a salt thereof can be prepared by subjecting the compound (I-d) or a salt thereof to elimination reaction of the carboxy protective group.
in the present elimination reaction, all conventional methods used in the elimination reaction of the carboxy protective group, for example, hydrolysis, reduction, elimination using Lewis acid, etc. are applicable. When the carboxy protective group is an ester, it can be
eliminated by hydrolysis or elimination using Lewis acid. The hydrolysis is preferably carried out in the presence of a base or an acid.
Suitable base may include, for example, an inorganic base such as alkali metal hydroxide (e.g. sodium
hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, etc.), alkaline earth metal hydroxide (e.g. magnesium hydroxide, calcium
hydroxide, etc.), alkali metal carbonate (e.g. sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, etc.), alkaline earth metal carbonate (e.g. magnesium carbonate, calcium
carbonate, etc.), alkali metal bicarbonate (e.g. sodium bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, etc.), alkali metal acetate (e.g. sodium acetate, potassium acetate, etc.), alkaline earth metal phosphate (e.g. magnesium phosphate, calcium phosphate, etc.), alkali metal hydrogen phosphate (e.g. disodium hydrogen phosphate, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, etc.), or the like, and an organic base such as trialkylamine (e.g. trimethylamine, triethylamine, etc.), picoline-, N-methylpyrrolidine, N-methylmorpholine,
1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-one,
1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane,
1,5-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undecene-5 or the like.
The hydrolysis using a base is often carried out in water or a hydrophilic organic solvent or a mixed solvent thereof.
Suitable acid may include an organic acid (e.g.
formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, etc.) and an inorganic acid (e.g. hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, etc.).
The present hydrolysis is usually carried out in an organic solvent, water or a mixed solvent thereof.
The reaction temperature is not critical, and it may suitable be selected in accordance with the kind of the carboxy protective group and the elimination method.

Preparation 50
To a solution of 3-(3-isobutylphenoxymethyl)benzoic acid (1.75 g) in dichloromethane (20 ml) were added oxalyl chloride (0.644 ml) and dimethylformamide (2 drops) at 25°C. The reaction mixture was stirred at 25°C for 2 hours and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (10 ml) and the solution was added to a solution of sodium phenolate, which was prepared with phenol (1.16 g) and sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 492 mg), in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) at 25°C over 15 minutes. The mixture was quenched with 1N
hydrochloric acid, and was extracted with ether. The extract was washed with water and brine, and dried over magnesium sulfate. After evaporation at the solvent, the residue was chromatographed on silica gel (40 g) eluting with a mixture of dichloromethane and hexane (1:1) to give phenyl 3-(3-isobutylphenyloxymethyl)benzoate (2.15 g) as a colorless oil.

N,N-dimethylformamide (20 ml) was added to a suspension of sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 1.05 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 ml) at 25°C over 15 minutes. The mixture was stirred at 25°C for 1.5 hours and cooled to -40°C. A solution of phenyl 3-(methoxymethoxy)benzoate (3.07 g) in tetrahydrofuran (40 ml) was added at -40°C over 30 minutes, and the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 30 minutes. The mixture was worked up in an usual manner, and the crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (50 g) eluting with chloroform and recrystallization from a mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane to give 4-[1-[3-(methoxymethoxy)- benzoyl]indol-3-yl]butyric acid (2.96 g) as colorless crystals.
