Reaction Steps

Dissolve nicotinic acid (28.2 mg, 0.23 mmol) in DCM (3 mL). Add EDC (40 mg, 0.208 mmol), HOBT (28.1 mg, 0.2081 mmol) and stir at ambient temperature for 10 min. Add 6-(2-amino-ethylamino)-7-chloro-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine (70 mg, 0.208 mmol) and stir at ambient temperature for 10 hr. Dilute with DCM, add water and extract the aqueous layer three times with DCM. Wash combined organic extracts with 1N aqueous NaOH, and brine. Dry the organic layer over MgSO4, concentrate in vacuo and purify by chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane/EtOAc (1:0, 1:1, 3:7 and 1:9) to obtain 7-chloro-6-{2-[(pyridine-3-carbonyl)-amino]-ethylamino}-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine.
