3-[2-(2-Ethylbenzoimidazol-1-yl)-9-methyl-6-morpholin-4-yl-9H-purin-8-ylmethylene]azetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester → 3-[2-(2-Ethylbenzoimidazol-1-yl)-9-methyl-6-morpholin-4-yl-9H-purin-8-ylmethyl]azetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-[2-(2-ethylbenzoimidazol-1-yl)-9-methyl-6-morpholin-4-yl-9H-purin-8-ylmethylene]azetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.1 g, 2.07 mmol) in EtOH (40 mL) and AcOH (15 mL) was added 10% Pd/C (200 mg) and the resulting mixture stirred under an atmosphere of H2 for 65 h. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite®, washing with EtOAc, and the filtrate concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography (Si—PCC, EtOAc:cyclohexane, 70-100%) affording the title compound as an orange oil (0.92 g, 83%). LCMS (method H): RT 3.01 min [M+H]+ 533.4
