Reaction Steps

2-Amino-7,8-dihydro-5H-pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester 1202 mg (4.8 mmol) was added at 0° C. to a solution of 3-chlorobenzoic acid chloride 615 μl (4.8 mmol) in pyridine (25 ml) and stirring was performed for 2 h at 0° C. and then overnight at RT under nitrogen as inert gas. After the addition of aqueous 1 M NaOH (40 ml) and stirring for 20 minutes, CH2Cl2 (50 ml) was added and the aqueous phase extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×20 ml). The combined organic phases were dried over Na2SO4. After filtration and removal of the solvent, purification was performed by means of column chromatography and the product 2-(3-chloro-benzoylamino)-7,8-dihydro-5H-pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester 790 mg (2.55 mmol, 53% of theoretical) was obtained.
