(S)-3-(hydroxymethyl)-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-5H-dipyrido[1,2-a:3′,2′-e]pyrazin-6(6aH)-one (89.0 mg, 0.382 mmol) was suspended in propionitrile (1 mL) and (cyanomethyl)trimethylphosphonium iodide (111.0 mg, 0.458 mmol) was added followed by N-ethyl-N-isopropylpropan-2-amine (200 ul, 1.1 mmol). To the stirred mixture was then added 6-(piperazin-1-yl)nicotinonitrile (79 mg, 0.420 mmol). The reaction was heated to 90° C. with stirring for 16 h. The crude reaction was cooled to room temperature and concentrated to a residue, then taken up in 3 mL DMSO and purified via HPLC (55-90% acetonitrile in water, ammonium bicarbonate buffer). The fractions were combined and concentrated until a white solid precipitated. The precipitate was filtered off and dried in vacuum to afford the title compound (54.2 mg, 35.2%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ (ppm): 10.48 (br. s., 1H), 8.46 (d, J=2.3 Hz, 1H), 7.83 (dd, J=9.1, 2.5 Hz, 1H), 7.64 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1H), 6.97 (d, J=1.8 Hz, 1H), 6.90 (d, J=9.1 Hz, 1H), 4.50 (d, J=12.9 Hz, 1H), 3.83 (dd, J=11.4, 2.8 Hz, 1H), 3.55-3.70 (m, 4H), 3.34 (s, 2H), 2.59 (td, J=12.6, 2.4 Hz, 1H), 2.40 (t, J=4.8 Hz, 4H), 2.03 (d, J=12.6 Hz, 1H), 1.84 (d, J=12.1 Hz, 1H), 1.63 (d, J=13.6 Hz, 1H), 1.29-1.56 (m, 3H). [M+H] calc'd for C22H25N7O, 404; found, 404.
