Diisopropylamine → HCID 67219256, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirring solution of diisopropylamine (34 μL, 0.24 mmol) in THF (1 mL), at −78° C., is added a 2.5M solution of n-BuLi in hexanes (105 μL, 0.26 mmol). After 20 minutes, a solution of [1-(3,4-dichloro-benzenesulfonyl)-2-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl]-acetic acid methyl ester (Method B; 100 mg, 0.24 mmol) and Mel (15.2 μL, 0.24 mmol) in THF (1 mL) is added. The reaction is continued for 30 minutes, then allowed to warm to room temperature. The reaction mixture is evaporated to dryness and purified by flash chromatography (4:1 iso-hexane/EtOAc elution), to afford 2-[1-(3,4-dichloro-benzenesulfonyl)-2-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl]-propionic acid methyl ester; MH+=427.
