Reaction Steps

A pressure tube was charged with 2-[(2,5-dichloro-4-pyridinyl)amino]benzoic acid (1.0 g, 3.53 mmol), 1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-5-amine (0.589 g, 5.30 mmol), (±)-2,2′-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthalene (0.330 g, 0.530 mmol), tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (Pd2(dba)3, 0.162 g, 0.177 mmol) and sodium tert-butoxide (0.849 g, 8.83 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (30 mL). The tube was degassed with N2 and sealed and the reaction mixture was heated in an oil bath at 120° C. for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness under high vacuum. The residue was taken back in water solution and the pH was adjusted to ˜4 to 5 using 6.0 N hydrochloride acid. The reaction was concentrated to dryness and the resulting solid was dissolved in MeOH and purified by reverse-phase HPLC to give the title compound as a solid (285 mg, 21% yield). MS: M(C17H16ClN5O2)=357.79, (M+H)+=358, 360.
