Reaction Steps

To a 4-mL vial was added 5-(3-(4-cyanophenyl)azetidine-1-carbonyl)-2-cyclobutyl-4-methylbenzamide (compound 6, 39 mg, 0.104 mmol), dioxane (200 μL) and 1,1-dimethoxy-N,N-dimethylethanamine (76 μL, 0.52 mmol). The mixture was heated at 90° C. for 3 hours then cooled to room temperature. Acetic acid (42 μL, 0.73 mmol) and hydrazine hydrate (30 μL, 0.62 mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 1 hour. The mixture was diluted with DCM (5 mL) and washed with aqueous NaH2PO4 (1M, 5 mL) then saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (5 mL). The organics was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel preparative thin layer chromatography (DCM/8% MeOH) to yield the title compound as a white powder (18.7 mg, 43%). m/z (ES+) 412 (M+H)+. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD): δ 7.65 (d with fine str., J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.57 (s, 1H), 7.39 (d with fine str., J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.29 (s, 1H), 4.61 (app t, J=9.6 Hz, 1H), 4.39 (app t, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 4.27-4.18 (m, 1H), 4.17-4.07 (m, 1H), 4.02-3.94 (m, 1H), 3.94-3.84 (m, 1H), 2.50 (s, 3H), 2.48 (s, 3H), 2.25-2.11 (m, 2H), 2.11-1.88 (m, 3H), 1.82-1.71 (m, 1H).
