Pyridine → (S)-3-methylmorpholine carbamoylchloride

Pyridine (1.60 mL, 19.8 mmol) was added dropwise to an ice cold suspension of triphosgene (2.94 g, 9.90 mmol) in DCM (20.0 mL). (S)-3-Methylmorpholine (1.00 mL, 9.90 mmol) was added and the reaction stirred for 3 hours, then quenched by dropwise addition of HCl (1M aqueous, 20 mL). The mixture was extracted into DCM (3×). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo to give (S)-3-methylmorpholine-carbamoylchloride (1.25 g, 77%). The product was used in the next reaction without purification. (S)-3-Methylmorpholine-carbamoylchloride (766 mg, 4.33 mmol) was dissolved in DCM (35.0 mL) and DIPEA (1.03 mL, 5390 mmol) was added followed by (5-fluoro-pyridin-2-yl)-hydrazine (WO2010022076, 500 mg, 3.94 mmol) and the reaction heated to 45° C. overnight. The reaction was cooled and quenched into water. The mixture was extracted into DCM (3 x). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by FCC using 0-10% [2M NH3in MeOH] in DCM to give the title compound (574 mg, 57%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): 1.36 (3H, d, J=6.9 Hz), 3.30 (1H, td, J=12.5, 3.9 Hz), 3.47-3.74 (4H, m), 3.89-4.03 (2H, m), 6.41 (1H, br s), 6.45 (1H, br s), 6.73 (1H, dd, J=9.0, 3.5 Hz), 7.29 (1H, ddd, J=9.0, 7.9, 2.9 Hz), 8.04 (1H, d, J=2.9 Hz).
