Triethylamine → 4-{5-Chloro-4-(4-cyano-6-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-3-yl)-2-[(2-methoxy-phenyl)-methyl-carbamoyl]-phenoxy}-butyric acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(3-tert-butoxycarbonyl-propoxy)-4-chloro-5-(4-cyano-6-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-3-yl)-benzoic acid (30 mg, 0.06 mmol), 2-methoxy-N-methylaniline (9.4 mg, 0.07 mmol), triethylamine (12.5 mg, 0.12 mmol) and 2-(7-aza-1H-benzotriazole-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU, 35 mg, 0.09 mL) in dichloromethane (1 mL) containing DMF (0.1 mL) was stirred at rt for 16 hrs. The mixture was then partitioned in water and dichloromethane. The organic layer was washed with water, dried and concentrated to yield a crude 4-{5-chloro-4-(4-cyano-6-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-3-yl)-2-[(2-methoxy-phenyl)-methyl-carbamoyl]-phenoxy}-butyric acid t-butyl ester.
