Reaction Steps

To 3-chloro-5-(1-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetyl}-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-5-yl)-4-pyridinecarbonitrile (80 mg, 0.181 mmol) was added Methyl hydrazine (0.286 mL, 5.43 mmol) to a 5 mL sealable vial with Ethanol (3 mL). The reaction was then capped and heated at 100° C. overnight. Observed incomplete conversion. Additional Methyl hydrazine (0.286 mL, 5.43 mmol) was added and heating was continued overnight. The reaction was concentrated, dissolved in 3 mL of DMSO and purified by HPLC: (HPLC condition: Gilson using Trilution software with a Sunfire 5u C18(2) 100A. 50×30.00 mm 5 micron. 7.3-minute run (47 ml/min, 17% ACN/H2O, 0.1% TFA to 42% ACN/H2O, 0.1% TFA) with UV detection at 220 nm). Product fractions were combined and the volume was reduced to remove most of the MeCN. To the water left behind was added saturated NaHCO3 and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×15 mL). The organics were combined, washed with saturated NaCl solution, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The product was transferred into a 40 mL vial with MeCN then water was added and the solution was freeze-dried to give 1-methyl-4-(1-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetyl}-2,3-dihydro-1H-indol-5-yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridin-3-amine (34 mg, 41.6% yield) as a light yellow solid.
