Reaction Steps

A suspension of 2-(2-isopropyl-2H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-yl)-8-piperidin-4-yl-4,5-dihydro-6-oxa-1,3a-diaza-benzo[e]azulene trifluoro acetate (250 mg, 0.51 mmol) in DCE (5 mL) was added acetone (0.06 mL, 0.77 mmol) and 4 Å molecular sieves was stirred under an atmosphere of argon for 10 min before adding sodium triacetoxy borohydride (216 mg, 1.02 mmol) and stirring for 18 h at RT. Further acetone (0.06 mL) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (216 mg) were added and stirring continued for a further 24 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with DCM and saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate and the organic layer washed with water followed by brine and then dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant solid was subjected to RPHPLC (gradient 20 to 70% methanol in water+0.1% HCO2H) to give 357 as a yellow solid (17 mg, 8%). LCMS: RT=2.81 min, [M+H]+=421. 1H NMR 400 MHz (DMSO-d) δ: 8.37-8.26 (1H, m), 7.90-7.89 (2H, m), 7.05 (1H, dd, J=8.33, 1.81 Hz), 6.89 (1H, d, J=1.73 Hz), 5.89-5.88 (1H, m), 4.49-4.48 (4H, m), 2.91 (2H, d, J=10.95 Hz), 2.76-2.75 (1H, m), 2.46 (1H, s), 2.26 (2H, t, J=11.38 Hz), 1.78 (2H, d, J=12.43 Hz), 1.64 (2H, td, J=12.20, 3.68 Hz), 1.48 (6H, d, J=6.60 Hz), 1.01 (6H, d, J=6.57 Hz)
