Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-(1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-2-yl)ethanone oxime (Example 72) (100 mg, 0.42 mmol) and sodium hydride (18 mg of a 60% in mineral oil, 0.45 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (4 mL) was stirred for 0.5 h. N-Boc chloropropylamine (86 mg, 0.44 mmol) was added dropwise and the reaction mixture was heated at 60° C. for 3 h. After stirring at room temperature for 12 h, the reaction mixture was quenched with water (10 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×15 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated to an oil. Purification by Biotage chromatography (30 to 100% ethyl acetate in hexanes) produced tert-butyl 3-[[[phenyl (1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-2-yl)methylene]amino]oxy]propylcarbamate (76 mg, 46%) as a white solid: mp 52-58° C.; ESI MS m/z 395 [C22H26N4O3+H]+; HPLC (Method A) 98.6% (AUC), tR=19.2 min.
