Reaction Steps

To solution of 2-[1-({3,4-difluoro-2-[(2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino]phenyl}carbonyl)-3-hydroxyazetidin-3-yl]-2-methylpropanoic acid (300 mg, 0.56 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) was added triethylamine (80 μL, 0.56 mmol), followed by PyBOP (295 mg, 0.56 mmol) and finally sodium borohydride (64 mg, 1.68 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was quenched by adding 20% aqueous citric acid, and then partitioned with ethyl acetate. The organic portion was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate, brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford a white solid which was purified by column chromatography. Eluting with 60% ethyl acetate in hexanes, the isolated product was concentrated in vacuo to afford 238 mg, 0.46 mmol (82%) of 1-({3,4-difluoro-2-[(2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino]phenyl}carbonyl)-3-(2-hydroxy-1,1-dimethylethyl)azetidin-3-ol as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO): 8.53 (s, 1H), 7.57 (d, 1H), 7.38-7.28 (m, 2H), 7.22-7.15 (m, 1H), 6.70-6.64 (m, 1H), 5.61 (s, 1H), 4.57 (br s, 1H), 4.30-4.27 (m, 1H), 4.18-4.15 (m, 1H), 3.80-3.77 (m, 1H), 3.68-3.64 (m, 1H), 3.25 (s, 2H), 0.76 (d, 6H); MS (EI) for C20H20F3IN2O3: 521 (MH+).
