Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl 4-(4-((4-((2-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethyl)phenyl)ethynyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-2-yl)amino)phenyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (I5) (0.250 g, 0.420 mmol) was dissolved in EtOAc (8 mL) and absolute ethanol (10 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen. 10% Pd/C (0.200 g) in EtOAc (4 mL) was added to the solution and the atmosphere was changed to hydrogen gas (balloon). The reaction was sealed with a balloon and stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The catalyst was removed by filtration through Celite, which was washed with EtOAc (7×10 mL). The solvent was removed in vacuo to give the title compound (I6) (0.211 g, 84% yield) as a yellow solid. LCMS Method C: rt 6.78 min; m/z 600.3 [M+H]+.
