Reaction Steps

Methyl 5-chloropyrazine-2-carboxylate (104 mg, 0.60 mmol) and cesium carbonate (467 mg, 1.43 mmol) were added to a solution of 3-hydroxy-5-{[(1S)-1-(hydroxymethyl)propyl]oxy}-N-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)benzamide (175 mg, 0.570 mmol), in acetonitrile (5 mL) and the mixture heated in a microwave reactor at 160° C. for 330 minutes. The acetonitrile was removed in vacuo and the residue dissolved in ethyl acetate (25 mL), washed with water (20 mL), brine (20 mL), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to a residue which was chromatographed by preparative HPLC on C18 reversed phase, eluting with 5-95% acetonitrile (+0.2% TFA) in water (+0.2% TFA), to give the required product (41 mg). 1H NMR δ (CDCl3): 0.97 (t, 3H), 1.78 (quin, 2H), 3.82 (s, 3H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 4.52 (m, 3H), 4.66 (quin, 1H), 6.59 (t, 1H), 6.89 (d, 1H), 7.05 (t, 1H), 7.15 (t, 1H), 8.19 (d, 1H), 8.79 (d, 1H), 9.86 (s, 1H); m/z 442 (M+H)+
