Participants

Reaction Steps

Cyanogen bromide (36 mg, 0.31 mmol) was added to a suspension of 4-(4-bromo-2-fluorophenylamino)-5-fluoro-1-methyl-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylic acid hydrazide (63 mg, 0.169 mmol) in dioxane (2 mL) followed by an aqueous NaHCO3 (2 mL of a 0.09 M solution) solution. After 17 hours, additional cyanogen bromide (14 mg) was added. After 19; hours, the reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure. Crystallization (MeOH:THF) followed by trituration (Et2O:MeOH 5:1) gave clean desired product as a white solid (60 mg, 89%). MS APCI (+) m/z 398, 400 (M+, Br pattern) detected; 1H NMR (400 mHz, CD3OD) δ 8.06 (s, 1H), 7.37 (d, 1H), 7.31 (d, 1H), 7.10 (td, 1H), 3.64 (s, 3H).
