Acetic Acid → 6-chloro-2-methyl-4-(1'-oxetan-3-yl-1',2',3',4',5',6'-hexahydro-[3,4']bipyridinyl-6-ylamino)-2H-pyridazin-3-one

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-chloro-2-methyl-4-(5-(piperidin-4-yl)pyridin-2-ylamino)pyridazin-3(2H)-one (639 mg, 2.00 mmol, Eq: 1.00) and oxetan-3-one (288 mg, 4.00 mmol, Eq: 2.0) in THF (10 ml) was added acetic acid (360 mg, 343 μl, 5.99 mmol, Eq: 3.0). The reaction mixture stirred under N2, at 55° C. for 1 h. Then sodium triacetoxyborohydride (847 mg, 4.00 mmol, Eq: 2.0) was added and the mixture was stirred at 65° C. for 2 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between DCM and saturated NaHCO3. The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with water. The organic layer was then dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, 24 g, 0% to 40% (60:10:1 DCM:MeOH:NH4OH)/DCM) gradient) to give 6-chloro-2-methyl-4-(1′-oxetan-3-yl-1′,2′,3′,4′,5′,6′-hexahydro-[3,4′]bipyridinyl-6-ylamino)-2H-pyridazin-3-one (453 mg, 60%). LC/MS-ESI observed [M+H]+ 376. 1H NMR in CDCl3 is consistent with desired product.
