Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of sodium triacetoxyborohydride (139 mg, 0.657 mmol) and (R)-2-amino-4-methyl-1-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)pentan-1-one (91 mg, 0.493 mmol) in DCE (2 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. A solution of 1-tert-butyl 3-methyl 4-formyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-1,3-dicarboxylate (100mg, 0.329 mmol) in DCE (2 mL) was added, followed by acetic acid (1 drop). The reaction was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min and then at room temperature for 3 h. Purification by silica column chromatography (EtOAc/DCM, 0-10%) afforded the title compound as a yellow oil (160 mg, 93%). [M+H] calc'd for C25H36N4O5, 473; found, 473.7.
