A suspension of 2-(3-(4-(1H-indazol-5-ylamino)quinazolin-2-yl)phenoxy)acetic acid (70 mg, 0.14 mmol), PyBOP® (40 mg, 0.077 mmol), DIEA (24 μL, 0.14 mmol) in dry CH2Cl2:DMF (2:0.1 mL) was stirred at RT for 15 minutes. To this solution of activated acid was added 2,2-dimethylpropan-1-amine (7.9 mg, 0.091 mmol). After 30 minutes, 1.0 equivalent of DIEA and 0.55 equivalents of PyBOP® were added. After stirring the solution for 15 minutes, 0.65 equivalents of 2,2-dimethylpropan-1-amine were added and the mixture was stirred for an additional 30 minutes. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the crude product was purified using prep HPLC (25-50_90 mins) to afford 2-(3-(4-(1H-indazol-5-ylamino)quinazolin-2-yl)phenoxy)-N-neopentylacetamide. (40 mg, 0.083 mmol, 59%).
