Aminoacetonitrile → (R)-2-(6-chloro-3-oxopyrrolo[4,3,2-de][2,6]naphthyridin-4(1H,3H,5H)-yl)-N-(cyanomethyl)-3-methylbutanamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To an 8 mL scintillation vial equipped for stirring was added (R)-2-(6-chloro-3-oxopyrrolo[4,3,2-de][2,6]naphthyridin-4(1H,3H,5H)-yl)-3-methylbutanoic acid (10 mg, 0.032 mmol). THF (0.5 mL), 2-aminoacetonitrile (3.64 mg, 0.065 mmol) and HATU (14.83 mg, 0.039 mmol) were added and the solution was stirred at 25° C. for 1 h. The reaction mixture was purified via preparative mass trigger LC-MS (AcCN/H2O, 5-50%). The fractions were collected, concentrated, and dried in vacuo to afford the title compound as a yellow oil (3.8 mg, 33.8%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 0.85-0.97 (m, 3 H) 1.02 (d, J=6.57 Hz, 1 H) 1.07 (d, J=6.32 Hz, 2 H) 2.53 (dt, J=11.18, 6.54 Hz, 1 H) 3.52-3.86 (m, 2 H) 4.89-5.04 (m, 1 H) 5.07 (d, J=11.37 Hz, 1 H) 5.51 (d, J=10.86 Hz, 1 H) 7.80-7.89 (m, 1 H) 8.13-8.34 (m, 1 H). [M+H] calc'd for C16H16ClN5O2, 346; found, 346.4.
