Reaction Steps

A solution of 5-(4-(bis(4-methoxybenzyl)amino)-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)-2,3′-bipyridin-6-amine (276 mg, 0.440 mmol) in TFA (10 mL) was heated to 75° C. for 15 h. about 80% of the TFA was removed in vacuo and the crude oily residue was pipetted into an ice cooled solution of NaHCO3. The resulting suspension was collected by filtration and was washed with water and MeOH. The solid was then dry-packed on silica gel and purified on the ISCO (12 g column, 1-25% MeOH in DCM) to give partially purified product. This was suspended in MeOH and filtered, and the filtercake was dry-packed with silica gel and purified on the ISCO (12 g column, 3-15% MeOH in DCM) to give 5-(4-amino-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-(6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)-2,3′-bipyridin-6-amine (17.2 mg, 0.045 mmol, 10.11% yield) as a brown amorphous solid. m/z (ESI, +ve ion) 387.0 (M+H)+. 1H NMR (400 MHz, d6-DMSO) δ 11.86 (1H, s); 9.26 (1H, d, J=2.0 Hz); 8.88 (1H, d, J=8.0 Hz); 8.66 (2H, d, J=2.9 Hz); 8.41 (1H, dt, J=8.1, 1.8 Hz); 8.21 (1H, dd, J=8.9, 2.6 Hz); 7.89 (1H, br. s.); 7.74 (1H, br. s.); 7.58 (1H, d, J=8.0 Hz); 7.52-7.56 (1H, m); 6.90 (1H, d, J=9.0 Hz); 3.87 (3H, s); 2.45 (3H, s).
