Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Cesium carbonate (489 mg, 1.5 mmol) was added to a solution of 3-hydroxy-5-{[(1S)-1-methyl-2-(methyloxy)ethyl]oxy}-N-(5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)benzamide (159 mg, 0.5 mmol) and 2-(azetidin-1-ylcarbonyl)-5-bromopyridine (181 mg, 0.75 mmol) and bromotris(triphenylphosphine)copper (93 mg, 0.1 mmol) in DMA (5 mL) and the stirred mixture heated at 160° C. in a microwave reactor for 4 hours. The mixture was cooled to RT and ambient pressure, partitioned between water (75 mL) and ethyl acetate (50 mL), the organic layer washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on silica, eluting with ethyl acetate, to give the desired compound that was crystallised from ether (45 mg, melting onset 113.8° C.). The compound may also be crystallised from ethyl acetate, giving rise to an alternative crystalline form (melting onset 132.7° C.). 1H NMR δ (CDCl3): 1.3 (d, 3H), 2.3 (m, 2H), 2.5 (s, 3H), 3.3 (s, 3H), 3.45-3.55 (m, 2H), 4.2 (t, 2H), 4.55 (m, 1H), 4.65 (t, 2H), 6.75 (d, 1H), 7.05 (d, 1H), 7.25 (s, 1H), 7.3 (d, 1H), 8.0 (s, 1H), 8.05 (d, 1H), 8.25 (d, 1H), 8.3 (s, 1H) and 9.45 (s, 1H). m/z 478 (M+H)+.
