Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 1-chloro-8-fluoroisoquinoline-3-carbonitrile (0.8 g, 3.88 mmol) and Et3N (0.78 g, 7.76 mmol) in NMP (5 mL) was added (S)-tert-butyl 3-aminopyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (0.87 g, 4.66 mmol) at RT. The resulting mixture was heated at 160° C. for 30 minutes in a microwave reactor. The reaction was quenched with water and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×30 mL). The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate and petroleum ether (EtOAc/PE=1:50-1:9 gradient) on silica gel to give the title compound (1.12 g, 81%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.56-7.52 (m, 1H), 7.44-7.42 (d, 1H, J=8.0 Hz), 7.29 (s, 1H), 7.21-7.18 (m, 1H), 6.47-6.43 (m, 1H), 4.73 (br s, 1H), 3.77-3.72 (dd, J1=6.4 Hz, J2=11.6 Hz, 1H), 3.48-3.19 (m, 3H), 2.26 (br s, 1H), 1.90 (br s, 1H), 1.41 (s, 9H); ESI-MS m/z [M+H-tert-butyl]+ 301.2.
