Reaction Steps

2-(4-(4-(7-(1-Methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidin-5-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)piperidin-4-yl)acetonitrile hydrochloride (Example 28, Step A; 27.0 mg, 0.0543 mmol) was suspended in acetonitrile (543 μL, 0.0543 mmol). To this was added triethylamine (30.3 μL, 0.217 mmol) to freebase, followed by acetaldehyde (30.5 μL, 0.543 mmol). After 30 minutes, NaBH(OAc)3 (57.6 mg, 0.272 mmol) was added to reduce. After stirring for 30 minutes, the reaction mixture was diluted in saturated bicarbonate and EtOAc. The aqueous layer was back-extracted with DCM. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried with MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. Purification of the resulting crude material by reverse phase HPLC using a 0-100% acetonitrile/water gradient afforded afford 2-(1-ethyl-4-(4-(7-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidin-5-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)piperidin-4-yl)acetonitrile (5.9 mg, 26% yield). MS (apci) m/z=416.2 (M+H).
