1,2-Dichloroethane → N-(6-(2-cyanopropan-2-yl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl)-2-(4-(5-ethoxy-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridin-3-yl)-2-fluorophenyl)acetamide, hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 2-(5-amino-3-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-methylpropanenitrile (13.91 mg, 0.061 mmol) in DMF (5 mL) was added to a solution of 2-(4-(5-ethoxy-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridin-3-yl)-2-fluorophenyl)acetic acid (52 mg, 0.061 mmol) in DMF (5 mL). HOBt (13.94 mg, 0.091 mmol), EDC (17.45 mg, 0.091 mmol) and Et3N (0.025 mL, 0.182 mmol) and the mixture was at 50° C. for 12 h. Then the solution was concentrated and distributed between EA and saturated NaHCO3 solution. The combined organic extract was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude material was purified by preparative HPLC (MeCN/H2O as eluants, acidic condition) to yield an off white solid of N-(6-(2-cyanopropan-2-yl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl)-2-(4-(5-ethoxy-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridin-3-yl)-2-fluorophenyl)acetamide hydrochloride (8.62 mg, 0.016 mmol, 26.4% yield). TLC (DCM/MeOH=10:1, Rf=0.3): 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ: 8.95 (d, J=2.2 Hz, 1H), 8.56 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 7.26-7.47 (m, 5H), 4.14 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 3.81-3.90 (m, 2H), 1.77-1.91 (m, 6H), 1.47 (t, J=6.9 Hz, 3H); ES-LCMS m/z 503.1 (M+H).
