5-Bromo-6-[4-(5-fluoro-2-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)piperazin-1-yl]-pyridine-3-sulfonic acid (2-cyclopropylethyl)amide → 6-[4-(5-Fluoro-2-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)piperazin-1-yl]pyridine-3-sulfonic acid (2-cyclopropylethyl)amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 5-bromo-6-[4-(5-fluoro-2-trifluoromethylbenzoyl)piperazin-1-yl]-pyridine-3-sulfonic acid (2-cyclopropylethyl)amide (0.100 g, 0.173 mmol) in methanol (5.0 mL) was added Pd/C (0.050 g, 12 mol %). The mixture was placed under an atmosphere of hydrogen for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography, eluting with a solvent gradient of 35% ethyl acetate and 65% hexane to yield the desired product (0.020 g, 24%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.58-8.57, 7.87-7.83, 7.76-7.71, 7.26-7.23, 7.08-7.04, 6.65-6.62, 4.60-4.56, 4.00-3.93, 3.86-3.64, 3.32-3.28, 3.04-2.97, 1.40-1.33, 0.59-0.53, 0.43-0.37, 0.025-0.008. 13C NMR (75 MHz, CDCl3) δ166.1, 162.6, 159.7, 148.2, 136.7, 129.7, 125.1, 124.7, 116.8, 116.5, 114.9, 114.7, 105.8, 46.5, 44.3, 44.2, 43.4, 41.4, 34.4, 8.2, 4.2.
