Reaction Steps

A solution of pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (1.26 g, 10 mmol) and 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (2.14 g, 13 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (8 mL) was stirred at 70° C. for 1 h. Then a solution of 2-(3-amino-phenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid (2.4 g, 8 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (5 mL) was added and the mixture was allowed to stir at 25° C. for 1 h. Purification by Waters automated flash system (column: Xterra 30 mm×100 mm, sample manager 2767, pump 2525, detector: ZQ mass and UV 2487, solvent system: acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid in water) afforded 3,3-dimethyl-2-{3-[(pyridine-2-carbonyl)-amino]-phenyl}-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid (1.85 g, 57%) as a light yellow solid: LC/MS m/e calcd for C24H23N3O3 (M+H)+: 402.47, observed: 402.5.
