Sodium hydride → Tert-butyl 4-(5-chloro-1-(3-fluoro-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yloxy)piperidine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of tert-butyl 4-(5-chloro-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridin-4-yloxy)piperidine-1-carboxylate (400 mg, 1.22 mmol), sodium hydride (60 wt % in mineral oil, 58 mg, 1.5 mmol) and DMF (8 mL) was purged with argon and then stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes. To the reaction was added 2,4-difluoro-1-(methylsulfonyl)benzene (351 mg, 1.83 mmol) and then heated at 130° C. for 1 hour. The resulting mixture was quenched with H2O and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo to a brown oil. The oil was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2, 0 to 100% EtOAc in CH2Cl2) to yield 321 mg of the desired product as an off-white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 8.07-8.14 (m, 1H) 7.35-7.47 (m, 3H) 6.01 (s, 1H) 4.57-4.64 (m, 1H) 3.60-3.69 (m, 2H) 3.44-3.55 (m, 2H) 3.26 (s, 3H) 1.93-2.03 (m, 2H) 1.83-1.93 (m, 2H) 1.49 (s, 9H).
