Reaction Steps

2-([1,2,4]Triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-3-yl)quinolin-8-yl trifluoromethanesulfonate (0.040 g, 0.10 mmol), 3-methylpiperidine (0.016 mL, 0.13 mmol), cesium carbonate (0.050 g, 0.15 mmol), Pd2 dba3 (0.005 g, 0.005 mmol) and 2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl (0.006 g, 0.01 mmol) were added to minimal degassed toluene and heated to 92° C. overnight in a sealed tube. After stirring overnight, DCM was added, and solids removed through filtration (Waters filter), followed by concentration in vacuo. The crude mixture was then purified by flash column chromatography (gradient elution of 6% NH4 in MeOH/DCM). The desired product was isolated, along with triflate starting material. The mixture was then treated with 3 N HCl aqueous at 95° C. overnight. The reaction was then cooled and solids removed by filtration. The filtrate was purified by flash column chromatography (gradient elution of 6% NH4 in MeOH/DCM (Rf ˜0.1 in 6% NH4 in MeOH (5%) and DCM (95%)). The desired product was isolated as a yellow solid, 0.005 g (15% yield). MS ESI (+) m/z 344.3 (M+1) detected.
