Reaction Steps
4-Methyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2′]bipyrazinyl-6′-ylamine was prepared from 6-chloro-pyrazin-2-ylamine (1.00 g, 7.72 mmol) and 1-methylpiperazine (942 L, 8.49 mmol) combined in N,N-dimethylformamide (35 mL) and heated at 100° C. overnight. The reaction was poured into water and extracted with 3 portions of dichloromethane. The combined organic was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to yield an off-white solid. This solid was purified via chromatography (silica gel 40 g methanol in dichloromethane). Product isolated as a tan oil that solidified upon standing. 1H NMR (400 MHz, (D3C)2SO, δ, ppm): 7.33 (s, 1H), 7.16 (s, 1H), 5.93 (s, 2H), 3.40 (s, 4H), 2.36 (s, 4H), 2.20 (s, 3H). 386b) [8-(4-Methanesulfonyl-phenyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-2-yl]-(4-methyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2′]bipyrazinyl-6′-yl)-amine was prepared from 2-chloro-8-(4-methanesulfonyl-phenyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine (133 mg, 0.434 mmol) and 4-methyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2′]bipyrazinyl-6′-ylamine (92.159 mg, 0.47689 mmol) in a manner analogous to Example 2d. Product isolated as an off-white foam (28.64 mg, 14.2%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, (D3C)2SO, δ, ppm): 10.07 (s, 1H), 8.91 (d, J=6.6 Hz, 1H), 8.59 (s, 1H), 8.41 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 2H), 8.08 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 2H), 8.00 (d, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 7.83 (s, 1H), 7.23 (t, J=14.5, 7.4 Hz, 1H), 3.32 (s, 3H), 3.56 (s, 4H), 2.40 (s, 4H), 2.23 (s, 3H). MS=465 (MH)+.
