4-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophene a key intermediate in brexpiprazole synthesis



Abstract Image

We established an improved synthetic route to 4-chlorobenzo[b]thiophene, a key intermediate in brexpiprazole synthesis, via a practical decarboxylation process in three steps. Thermal analysis demonstrated that the coexistence of the decarboxylated product with DBU should be avoided and that removal of the product outside the reactor was vital. Our process yields the target compound by distillation under reduced pressure and is safe, highly batch efficient, cost-effective, and high yielding. Furthermore, manufacturing on a pilot scale was also accomplished through our approach.
