Hydrazine hydrate (1:1) → 1-(1-(Cyano(4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)methyl)piperidin-4-yloxy)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)urea

Participants

Reaction Steps

Hydrazine monohydrate (0.063 ml, 1.303 mmol) was added to a solution of 2-(4-(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yloxy)piperidin-1-yl)-2-(4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)acetonitrile (258 mg, 0.434 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5 ml) and the whole was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. The resulting solid was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml), treated with 4-fluorophenyl isocyanate (0.023 ml, 0.200 mmol) and stirred at room temperature for 14 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vauo and the residue was purified by column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane: 50/50 to 0/100) and the resulting solid was triturated with ethyl acetate/hexane to give 1-(1-(cyano(4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl)methyl)piperidin-4-yloxy)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)urea (110 mg, 56%) as a white solid: LCMS: 442 [M+1]+. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ: 1.67 (m, 1H), 1.81 (m, 1H), 1.94 (m, 2H), 2.33 (m, 2H), 2.58 (m, 1H), 2.88 (m, 1H), 3.76 (m, 1H), 5.47 (s, 1H), 7.10 (m, 2H), 7.46-7.60 (m, 6H), 8.62 (s, 1H), 9.43 (s, 1H).
