Reaction Steps

The title compound was prepared from 2-bromo-pyridin-4-ylamine using analogous methods to those outlined above for 6-chloro-3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (Preparations 107-110). Colourless solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3) 8.00 (1H, s), 7.87 (1H, br s), 3.75 (2H, s), 1.59 (9H, br s), 1.39 (6H, s). MS: [M+H−tBu]+ 271, 273. Synthetic intermediates isolated in this process were as follows: 2-Bromo-5-iodo-pyridin-4-ylamine (pale orange solid, 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) 8.18 (1H, s), 6.78 (1H, s), 6.48 (2H, br s); MS: [M+H]+ 299, 301); (2-Bromo-5-iodo-pyridin-4-yl)-(2-methyl-allyl)-amine (pale orange oil, 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) 8.20 (1H, s), 6.52 (1H, s), 6.47 (1H, brt), 4.85 (1H, d), 4.74 (1H, d), 3.82 (2H, d), 1.68 (3H, s); MS: [M+H]+ 353, 355); 6-Bromo-3,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine (colourless solid, 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) 7.70 (1H, s), 6.73 (1H, br s), 6.47 (1H, s), 3.30 (2H, d), 1.26 (6H, s); MS: [M+H]+ 227, 229).
