Reaction Steps

Add 1-chloroethylchloroformate (0.056 mL, 0.52 mmol) to a stirred solution of 6-(4-{2-[benzyl-(3-phenyl-propyl)-amino]-ethyl}-phenoxy)-nicotinamide (0.1211 g, 0.2603 mmol) (Example 3) and 1,2-dichloroethane (5 mL). Beat the reaction to reflux under nitrogen for 1.5 h. Add methanol (7 mL) and heat at reflux under nitrogen for 1 h. Cool the reaction to room temperature and add 2 M ammonia in methanol (5 mL). Concentrate on a rotary evaporator to give the crude product. The crude product is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with 1% concentrated ammonium hydroxide/10% ethanol/chloroform to yield 0.0654 g (67%) of 6-{4-[2-(3-phenyl-propylamino)-ethyl]-phenoxy}-nicotinamide: HPLC (30/70 to 90/10 ACN/(0.1% TFA in water) Zorbax SB-Phenyl Column 4.6 mm×15 cm×5 micron: Retention time: 7.48 minutes, Purity: 99.2%; mass spectrum (ion spray): m/z=376.2 (M+1).
