Reaction Steps

To a solution of 25 (2.864 g, 7.24 mmol) in DCM (30 mL) was added 2-methoxyethylamine (8) (0.756 mL, 8.69 mmol). After 45 min, sodium triacetoxyborohydride (2.149 g, 10.14 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 18 h. More sodium triacetoxyborohydride (2.149 g, 10.14 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred for an additional 2 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and the phases were separated. Organic phase was collected and the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (3×100 mL). The combined organic solutions were concentrated and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (eluent DCM/MeOH) to afford, intermediate 26 (1.742 g, 53% yield) as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ (ppm): 8.62 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H), 8.55 (d, J=1.2 Hz, 1H), 8.48 (dd, J=10.2, 2.6 Hz, 1H), 8.37 (s, 1H), 8.26-8.23 (m, 1H), 8.21 (ddd, J=8.8, 2.8, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 7.90 (dd, J=8.4, 2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.71 (dd, J=9.0, 8.2 Hz, 1H), 6.97 (dd, J=5.6, 0.4 Hz, 1H), 3.78 (s, 2H), 3.40 (t, J=5.6 Hz, 2H), 3.24 (s, 3H), 2.65 (t, J=5.6 Hz, 2H). MS (m/z): 455.2 (M+H).
