Procedure

A solution of methyl 2-(tert-butoxy)-2-(6-methyl-4-(5-methylchroman-6-yl)-7-oxo-6,7-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-5-yl)acetate (20 mg, 0.046 mmol) in Acetonitrile (0.45 mL) was treated with Cs2CO3 (59.4 mg, 0.182 mmol), 3-fluoro-4-methylbenzyl bromide (13.89 mg, 0.068 mmol), and then stirred at 70° C. for 90 min. The reaction was cooled to rt, diluted with water and 1N HCl, extracted with EtOAc, washed Brine, dried with Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated. Purification with column chromatography (0-60% EtOAc/Hexane) gave methyl 2-(tert-butoxy)-2-(1-(3-fluoro-4-methylbenzyl)-6-methyl-4-(5-methylchroman-6-yl)-7-oxo-6,7-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-5-yl)acetate (21.5 mg, 0.038 mmol, 84% yield) as clear oil: LCMS (m/z) ES+=561 (M+1). The intermediate was dissolved in Methanol (0.5 mL) and Tetrahydrofuran (THF) (0.5 mL), treated with LiOH (0.100 mL, 0.200 mmol), and stirred overnight at 60° C. The reaction was concentrated and purified with reverse phase HPLC (20-100% MeCN/H2O-0.1% TFA) to give title compound (13.5 mg, 0.024 mmol, 64.7% yield) as white solid: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) ppm 7.36-7.29 (m, 0.4H), 7.12 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 7.04-6.87 (m, 3.6H), 6.80-6.66 (m, 1H), 5.97-5.59 (m, 3H), 5.46-5.40 (m, 0.4H), 5.21-5.11 (m, 0.6H), 4.27-4.10 (m, 2H), 3.71-3.61 (m, 3H), 2.77-2.58 (m, 2H), 2.27-2.19 (m, 3H), 2.16-2.05 (m, 2H), 2.02 (s, 2H), 1.94 (s, 1H), 1.19-1.11 (m, 6H), 1.05-0.99 (m, 3; LCMS (m/z) ES+=547 (M+1).
