Reaction Steps

(E)-Diisopropyl diazene-1,2-dicarboxylate (15.80 g, 78.13 mmol) was added drop wise to 3-(dimethylamino)propan-1-ol (8.06 g, 78.13 mmol), 5-bromo-6-fluoropyridin-2-ol (10 g, 52.09 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (20.49 g, 78.13 mmol) in DCM (150 mL) cooled to 0-5° C. under an inert atmosphere. The resulting solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 h then the solvent, removed under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with EtOAc (50 mL) and the solid removed by filtration and discarded. The filtrate was acidified with hydrogen chloride in dioxane. The solid was collected by filtration then dissolved in a sat. aqueous solution of Na2CO3 (200 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3×100 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with water, brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to afford the desired material (9.00 g, 62.3%). NMR Spectrum: 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.89-1.98 (2H, m), 2.26 (6H, s), 2.34 (2H, t), 4.30 (2H, t), 6.53 (1H, d), 7.74 (1H, t). Mass Spectrum: m/z (ES+)[M+H]+=277.
