Participants

Reaction Steps

10% Palladium on carbon (75 mg, 0.07 mmol) was added to a solution of 7H-indolo[2,1-a][2]benzazepine-6,10-dicarboxamide, 13-cyclohexyl-N10-[(dimethylamino)sulfonyl]-3-methoxy-N6-[(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]- (60 mg, 0.10 mmol) in MeOH/CH2Cl2 (1:1, 4 mL) and the reaction mixture was vacuum flushed with nitrogen (3×) and then with hydrogen (3×). The reaction was stirred under a balloon of hydrogen overnight, filtered through a pad of celite and concentrated to yield 5H-indolo[2,1-a][2]benzazepine-6,10-dicarboxamide, 13-cyclohexyl-N10-[(dimethylamino)sulfonyl]-6,7-dihydro-3-methoxy-N6-[(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]- (60 mg, 0.09 mmol, 90%) as a bright yellow solid. Mixture of atrope diastereomers. LCMS: m/e 633 (M+H)+, ret time 1.73 min, column C, 2 minute gradient.
