Reaction Steps

Combine 5-(3-aminomethyl-cyclohexyl)-3-methyl-5H-2-oxa-1,5,7-triaza-cyclopenta[a]naphthalen-4-one hydroiodide (136 mg, 0.31 mmol) with benzoic acid (42 mg, 0.34 mmol), 1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (65 mg, 0.34 mmol), 1-hydroxy-7-azabenzo-triazole (46 mg, 0.34 mmol), and N,N-diisopropylethyl amine (0.20 mL, 1.15 mmol), in N,N-dimethylformamide (4 mL) and stir over a weekend at ambient temperature. Concentrate in vacuo and take up in water and extract with dichloromethane. Dry over sodium sulfate and concentrate in vacuo. Elute over silica gel using methanol/dichloromethane to give 96 mg (74%) of the desired product as an off white solid. MS(ES): (M+1)+ 417.2, 418.2 m/z.
