Reaction Steps

{[1-(3,4-Difluoro-benzyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-pyridine-3-carbonyl]-amino}-thiophen-2-yl-acetic acid (0.360 g, 0.000890 mol;) was dissolved in Methanol (10 mL, 0.2 mol;) then cooled to 0. Thionyl chloride (325 uL, 0.00445 mol;) was added and the reaction was allowed to stir o/n. The crude was concentrated then dissolved in ethyl acetate and washed with 1× citric acid, 1× saturated bicarbonate, and 1× brine. The ethyl acetate was then dried with magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The crude was then dissolved in methylene chloride and injected onto the combiflash for purification. The compound eluted at almost 100% EA using a 0-100% hexanes ethyl acetate gradient. Pure fractions were concentrated to give the pure product. ES (+) MS m/e=418.86.
