Thus, in accordance with Reaction Scheme 6, 3-nitro-6-methyl-fluorobenzene (Aldrich) is subjected to oxidation, conversion of the resulting carboxylic acid to an acid chloride and thereafter to an ethyl ester, followed by reduction of the nitro group, to yield ethyl 2-fluoro-4-amino-benzoate (Compound C1). 3-Nitro-6-methyl-bromobenzene (Aldrich) and 3-nitro-6-methyl-chlorobenzene (Aldrich) are subjected to essentially to the same series of reactions to yield ethyl 2-bromo-4-amino-benzoate (Compound D1) and ethyl 2-chloro-4-amino-benzoate (Compound E1), respectively. 2-Nitro-4-aminobenzoic acid (Research Plus) is converted to its methyl ester (Compound F1) through the corresponding acid chloride. 2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-4-amino-benzoic acid (Aldrich) is esterified by treatment with ethanol in the presence of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine in CH2Cl2 to give ethyl 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-amino-benzoate (Compound G1). 2,4,6-Trifluorobenzoic acid (Aldrich) is converted to the methyl ester through the acid chloride, and the 4-fluoro atom is displaced by reaction with sodium azide, followed by hydrogenation, to yield methyl 2,6-difluoro-4-amino benzoate (Compound H1). Compounds C1, D1, E1, F1, G1 and H1 serve as amine reagents in accordance with Formula 7. Further examples of reagents in accordance with Formula 7 are nitro, fluoro, chloro, bromo and trifluoromethyl derivatives of amino substituted heteroaryl carboxylic acids, or their lower alkyl esters, such as ethyl 2-amino-4-chloropyridine 2-carboxylate, ethyl 5-amino-3-chloropyridine 5-carboxylate, and 3,4-dibromo-5-aminothiophene-2-carboxylic acid. The latter examples qcan be prepared by respective chlorination or bromination of 2-aminopyridine-5-carboxylic acid or of its ester, 3-aminopyridine-6-carboxylic acid or of its ester (described in WO 93/06086) and of 2-aminothiophene-5-carboxylic acid (described in PCT/US92/06485).
