Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(4-chloro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-N-((1S)-2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)-1-{[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}ethyl)-5-ethyl-2-thiophenecarboxamide (316 mg, 0.53 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (1.314 ml) and methanol (1.3 ml) at 25° C. was added hydrazine (0.16 ml, 5.26 mmol) dropwise. After 12 h, the solution was concentrated, purified via column chromatography (silica, 5% MeOH in DCM (1% NH4OH)) and converted to the HCl salt by adding excess 2M HCl in Et2O (2 ml) to the residue in MeOH (5 ml) affording the HCl salt of N-((1S)-2-amino-1-{[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]methyl}ethyl)-4-(4-chloro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-5-ethyl-2-thiophenecarboxamide (163 mg, 0.30 mmol, 57% yield) as a white solid: LCMS (ES) m/z=471, 473 (M, M+2)+, 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 8.82 (br. s., 1H) 8.04 (bs, 3H) 7.85 (s, 1H) 7.65-7.72 (m, 2H) 7.52-7.59 (m, 2H) 7.39-7.46 (m, 1H) 4.41-4.47 (m, 1H) 3.71 (s, 3H) 2.98-3.07 (m, 4H) 2.67 (q, J=7.58 Hz, 2H) 1.16 (t, J=7.58 Hz, 3H).
