[4-(6-amino-5-benzyloxy-pyridin-3-yl)-phenyl]-[(2R)-pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl]-methanone → [4-(6-amino-5-hydroxy-pyridin-3-yl)-phenyl]-[(2R)-2-pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-methanone

To a solution of [4-(6-amino-5-benzyloxy-pyridin-3-yl)-phenyl]-[(2R)-pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl]-methanone (2.28 g, 5.00 mmol) in methanol (25 mL) was added 10% Pd/C (100 mg). The mixture was degassed and charged with hydrogen for three times, and then stirred under hydrogen balloon overnight. The reaction was filtered through a celite pad, washed with methanol, and condensed. After high vacuum dry, [4-(6-amino-5-hydroxy-pyridin-3-yl)-phenyl]-[(2R)-2-pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-methanone was obtained (1.74 g, 95% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.79 (s, 1H), 7.54 (m, 3H), 7.46 (m, 2H), 7.14 (s, 1H), 5.68 (s, 2H), 4.22 (m, 1H), 3.45 (m, 2H), 2.66 (m, 1H), 2.52 (m, 4H), 1.96 (m, 2H), 1.84 (m, 3H), 1.64 (m, 4H); MS m/z 367 (M+1).
