Reaction Steps

To a vial were added 2-bromo-4,6-dichloro-3-(4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl)-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine (200 mg, 0.47 mmol), octahydrocyclopenta[b][1,4]oxazine hydrochloride (purchased from Enamine); 147 mg, 0.9 mmol), potassium fluoride (81 mg, 1.41 mmol), DIEA (246 μL, 1.41 mmol), and DMSO (2 mL). The vial was sealed and heated to 90° C. for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate, and washed with water and brine. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (0-60% ethyl acetate/hexanes, linear gradient) to afford 4,6-dichloro-2-[(trans)-hexahydrocyclopenta[b][1,4]oxazin-4(4aH)-yl]-3-[4-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl]-3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine (racemate). MS APCI calc'd. for C21H19Cl2F3N4O [M+H]+ 471. found 471.
