1-Ethyl-3-(3'-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide → Ethyl 3-[6-(5-{5-fluoro-6-[(1-methylethyl)oxy]-3-pyridinyl}-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl]propanoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

EDCI (385 mg) and HOBT (330 mg) were added to a solution of 5-fluoro-6-[(1-methylethyl)oxy]-3-pyridinecarboxylic acid (200 mg) in THF (5 mL) at RT. The resulting solution was stirred for 30 mins. Ethyl 3-{6-[(Z)-(hydroxyamino)(imino)methyl]-1H-indol-3-yl}propanoate (D107) (413 mg) in THF (5 mL) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 2 hours. TBAF (1.1 g) was then added. The reaction vessel was sealed and heated in Biotage Initiator using initial normal to 120° C. for 2 hours. After cooling, the reaction was quenched with water, and extracted with EtOAc for 3 times. The combined organic solution was washed with brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The dried solution was concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (15% EtOAc in hexane) to afford ethyl 3-[6-(5-{5-fluoro-6-[(1-methylethyl)oxy]-3-pyridinyl}-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-1H-indol-3-yl]propanoate (D110) (60 mg) as a pale yellow solid. MS (ES): C23H23FN4O4 requires 438; found 439.2 (M+H+).
