Thionyl Chloride → 7-bromo-N-(5-(2-(2,6-cis-dimethylpiperidin-1-yl)ethylcarbamoyl)-2-fluorophenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

7-Bromoimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carboxylic acid (Intermediate 1) (1.150 g, 4.77 mmol) was suspended in toluene (10 ml) and treated with thionyl chloride (1.045 ml, 14.32 mmol). The mixture was at 100° C. for 2 hrs. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the solid was added to a stirred solution of 3-amino-N-(2-(2,6-cis-dimethyl piperidin-1-yl)ethyl)-4-fluorobenzamide (1.4 g, 4.77 mmol) in dry pyridine (5 ml) containing oven dried molecular sieves. The mixture was stirred at RT under nitrogen atmosphere overnight. The solvent was removed in vacuo and purification of the crude product by chromatography on silica eluting with 0-20% MeOH in DCM afforded the title compound;
