Triethylamine → 7H-indolo[2,1-a][2]benzazepine-10-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of methyl 7H-indolo[2,1-a][2]benzazepine-10-carboxylate, 13-cyclohexyl, 6-carboxylic acid (150 mg, 0.36 mmol), 2-(piperazin-1-yl)pyrimidine (63 mg, 0.38 mmol) and triethylamine (0.10 mL) in DMF (2 mL) was added HATU (160 mg, 0.42 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 15 min., diluted with H2O (˜4 mL) and the solids were collected by filtration washed with H2O and dried under vacuum overnight to yield 7H-indolo[2,1-a][2]benzazepine-10-carboxylic acid, 13-cyclohexyl-6-[[4-(2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperazinyl]carbonyl]-, methyl ester (168 mg, 0.30 mmol, 83%) as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.28 (d, J=4.9 Hz, 2H), 8.16 (br s, 1H), 7.89 (d, J =8.6 Hz, 1H), 7.74 (dd, J=8.6 Hz, 1H), 7.59 (dd, J=7.6, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.52-7.45 (m, 2H), 7.40 (dd, J=7.3, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.25 (s, 1H), 6.51 (t, J=4.9 Hz, 1H), 5.15 (br s, 1H), 4.43(br s, 1H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 3.80-3.29 (m, 8H), 2.91-2.82 (m, 1H), 2.17-1.14 (m, 10H). LCMS: m/e 562 (M+H)+, ret time 2.07 min, column A, 2 minute gradient.
