Step A1 consists of the preparation of a compound of general formula (I) by reacting a compound of general formula (III) with a compound of general formula (IV) in an inert solvent in the presence of a dehydrohalogenating agent.
A compound of formula (III) used as a starting material in this step may be prepared by hydrolyzing 2,5-dimethylfuran-3-carboxylate, which may be prepared by condensing chloroacetone with acetoacetate, followed by halogenation.
A compound of formula (IV) used as a starting material in this step is an aniline derivative which is commercially available or may be prepared by well-known methods. 26 3 8 8 4 Examples of the inert solvents used include, for example, ethers such as ether, isopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane; aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene or xylene; halogenated hydrocarbons such as dichloromethane, chloroform or carbon tetrachloride; and mixtures of two or more of these solvents; preferably aromatic hydrocarbons (particularly toluene).
Examples of dehydrohalogenating agents used include, for example, tertiary amines such as triethylamine, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine or the like and pyridines. This reaction can be carried out in the presence or absence of a solvent. In order to perform the reaction smoothly, using a sclvent, the reaction is carried out at a temperature of 0°C to reflux temperature of the solvent used, preferably from room temperature to 100°C. The time required for the reaction takes generally from 30 minutfj to 5 hours*, preferably from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
