Thienylacrylic acid (XII), prepared from thiophene aldehyde (XI), was activated as the mixed anhydride with ethyl chloroformate and then treated with NaN3 to yield acyl azide (XIII). Cyclization of (XIII) in the presence of Bu3P in boiling diphenyl ether generated the thienopyridine system (XIV). Chlorination of (XIV) with POCl3 afforded the chloro derivative (XV). After lithium-bromine exchange with n-butyllithium, the resulting organolithium derivative (XVI) was treated with SO2 and further oxidized to sulfonyl chloride (XVII) with SO2Cl2. Coupling of (XVII) with aminopyrrolidinone (X) yielded sulfonamide (XVIII). Conversion of the nitrile of (XVIII) to the corresponding imidate (XIX), followed by reaction with ammonia produced benzamidine (XX). Finally, hydrogenolytic dechlorination of (XX) over Pd/C provided the title compound.
