Water → propane-1-sulfonic acid {2-fluoro-3-[hydroxy-(5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazin-7-yl)-methyl]-phenyl}-amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To propane-1-sulfonic acid (2-fluoro-3-formyl-phenyl)-amide (18, 50 mg, 0.42 mmol) in 0.8 mL of methanol, 5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine (3, 103 mg, 0.42 mmol) and potassium hydroxide (71 mg, 1.3 mmol) were added under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 48 hours, then poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and the filtrate concentrated under vacuum. The resulting material was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluting with 60% ethyl acetate in dichloromethane. Appropriate fractions were combined and concentrated under vacuum to provide the desired compound as a solid (19, 74 mg, 49%). MS (ESI) [M−H+]−=363.5.
