N,N'-Dimethylethylenediamine → N-((4R)-2-amino-7'-methoxyspiro[1,3-oxazole-4,9'-xanthen]-2'-yl)-5-chloro-2-pyridinecarboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A vial was charged with 2′-bromo-7′-methoxyspiro[1,3-oxazole-4,9′-xanthen]-2-amine (90.0 mg, 249 μmol), 5-chloropicolinamide (59 mg, 374 μmol), cesium carbonate (244 mg, 748 μmol), copper(I) iodide (47 mg, 249 μmol), dioxane (2 mL), and N1,N2-dimethylethane-1,2-diamine (27 μl, 249 μmol). The vial was sealed under a blanket of Ar (g) and placed in a 110° C. oil bath for 5 days. The reaction mixture was then poured into a mixture of ammonium chloride solution (10 mL) and DCM (10 mL). The layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (2×5 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated. The residue was dissolved in DMSO and filtered, and the filtrate was purified by reverse-phase HPLC (10-90% CH3CN/H2O with 0.1% TFA). The fractions containing the desired product were poured into saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and extracted with DCM (3×). The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to give N-((4R)-2-amino-7′-methoxyspiro[1,3-oxazole-4,9′-xanthen]-2′-yl)-5-chloro-2-pyridinecarboxamide as a white solid. MS m/z=437.2 [M+H]+. Calc'd for C22H18ClN4O4: 437.1.
