5-Methoxy-3-(piperidin-4-yl)-1H-indole → 6-[4-(5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl]-3-(trifluoromethyl)[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine

Reaction Steps

6-Chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine (160 mg, 0.72 mmol), 5-methoxy-3-(piperidin-4-yl)-1H-indole (obtained as described in PCT Int. Appl. WO 2004006922, Intermediate 37) (166 mg, 0.72 mmol) and DIPEA (0.138 mL, 0.79 mmol) in DMF (2 mL) were stirred and heated at 80° C. for 1 hour. The resulting mixture was cooled to room temperature and quenched in water (10 mL) to give a precipitate. The solid was collected by filtration, washed sequentially with water, acetonitrile and ether, and air dried to give 6-[4-(5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl]-3-(trifluoromethyl)[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine (189 mg, 63%) as a colourless solid.
