Oxalyl chloride → 5-(3-{[(2E)-4-chlorobuta-2-enoyl]amino}phenoxy)-6-isopropyl-3-{[4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl]amino}pyrazine-2-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 4-bromocrotonic acid (632 mg) and acetonitrile (11 mL) were added oxalyl dichloride (308 μL) and N,N-dimethylformamide (2 droplets) under ice-cooling, followed by stirring at room temperature for 2 hours. To a mixture of 5-(3-aminophenoxy)-6-isopropyl-3-{[4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl]amino}pyrazine-2-carboxamide (1.1 g) and N-methylpyrrolidone (22 mL) was added a solution of the acid chloride prepared above under ice-cooling, followed by stirring at room temperature overnight. To the reaction mixture was added a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, and the precipitated solid was collected by filtration and dried under reduced pressure. The obtained solid was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent; chloroform:methanol=1:0-9:1) to obtain 5-(3-{[(2E)-4-chlorobuta-2-enoyl]amino}phenoxy)-6-isopropyl-3-{[4-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)phenyl]amino}pyrazine-2-carboxamide (125 mg) as a solid.
