Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 3-(3,4-dihydro-2,7-naphthyridin-2(1H)-yl)benzoic acid (15.0 mg, 0.059 mmol), triethylamine (0.016 mL, 0.12 mmol) and catalytic DMAP in 1.0 mL 1,2-dichloroethane at rt was added propylphosphonic anhydride solution (50 wt % in EtOAc, 0.046 mL, 0.077 mmol). After 8 min at rt, 3-isopropylaniline (0.015 mL, 0.106 mmol) was added and the reaction stirred at rt for 18 hours. Then additional 3-isopropylaniline (0.015 mL) and propylphosphonic anhydride solution (0.030 mL) was added and the reaction continued for an additional 3 hours. The reaction was quenched into brine/dilute aqueous Na2CO3 solution, extracted with EtOAc, the EtOAc layer washed with H2O, brine/dilute aqueous Na2CO3 solution, dried with anhydrous Na2SO4 and rotary evaporated to an oil. The oil was chromatographed eluting with CHCl3/EtOAc to give the title compound as a light yellow solid (13 mg, 57%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ: 8.42 (s, 1H), 8.38 (d, J=5.0 Hz, 1H), 7.94 (s, 1H), 7.55-7.57 (m, 2H), 7.47 (ddd, J=8.1, 2.2, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 7.34-7.40 (m, 1H), 7.29 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 7.21-7.26 (m, 1H), 7.08-7.14 (m, 2H), 7.01-7.05 (m, 1H), 4.46 (s, 2H), 3.63 (t, J=5.9 Hz, 2H), 2.85-3.02 (m, 3H), 1.27 (d, J=7.0 Hz, 6H).
