Participants

Reaction Steps

6-Chloro-2-pyridinecarboxylic acid (available from Fluorochem, 2540 mg, 16.1 mmol) and O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (6130 mg, 16.1 mmol) were dissolved in DMF (40 ml) and DIPEA (8.44 ml) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 mins then 6-(1H-indol-4-yl)-1H-indazol-4-amine (2000 mg, 8.06 mmol) was added and the mixture stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo to ˜15 ml which was added to 4×50 g aminopropyl cartridges which had been preconditioned with MeOH. The reaction mixture remained on the cartridges for 3 h before being eluted with MeOH. The fractions were combined and the solvent was removed in vacuo to give a brown oil which was purified by chromatography on silica gel (2×100 g cartridges) eluting with 0-25% MeOH in dichloromethane over 40 mins. Appropriate fractions were combined and the solvent was removed in vacuo to give the title compound (809 mg) as an orange solid.
