Triethylamine → (R)-2-(8-(hydroxymethyl)-1-isopropyl-7-(methylsulfonyl)-3,4-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-2(1H)-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine-5-carboxamide

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-2-(8-(hydroxymethyl)-1-isopropyl-7-(methylsulfonyl)-3,4-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-2(1H)-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid (100 mg, 0.19 mmol, partially racemized) in DMF (2 mL) was added HATU (97 mg, 0.25 mmol) and Et3N (52 mg, 0.51 mmol). The mixture was stirred at rt for 1 h. NH4Cl (19 mg, 0.34 mmol) was added in one portion. The mixture was stirred at rt for 16 h. Water (10 mL) was added and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (4×10 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water (3×10 mL) and brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by preparative TLC and SFC separation to afford (R)-2-(8-(hydroxymethyl)-1-isopropyl-7-(methylsulfonyl)-3,4-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-2(1H)-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine-5-carboxamide (55.2 mg, 56.7% yield, isomer 1) as a white solid and (S)-2-(8-(hydroxymethyl)-1-isopropyl-7-(methylsulfonyl)-3,4-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-2(1H)-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine-5-carboxamide (10.5 mg, 10.8% yield, isomer 2) as white solid.
