A simple and practical synthetic approach for tasigna was described here in six steps with high yield (40%). All of the intermediates and final target compound were isolated cleanly in high yield without a need for chromatographic purification. Significantly, the facile synthetic route proposed in this work has the characteristics of mild synthetic conditions, inexpensive reagents, high yield and simple operation.
