Propionyl chloride → N-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-{[2-(propanoylamino)[1,3]thiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-5-yl]oxy}phenyl)-3-(1-cyano-1-methylethyl)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-{5-[(2-amino[1,3]thiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-5-yl)oxy]-4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl}-3-(1-cyano-1-methylethyl)benzamide produced in Example C52(v) in pyridine (1.0 mL) was added propionyl chloride (29 μL, 0.332 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (10 mL), washed with 5% aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution (10 mL) and saturated brine (10 mL), and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The insoluble material was filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by basic silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=70/30→0/100), and the obtained solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was crystallized from ethyl acetate/hexane to give the title compound (46.7 mg, 52%) as a colorless powder.
