Reaction Steps

Potassium carbonate (0.140 g, 1.01 mmol) was added to a stirred solution of N-(sec-butylsulfonyl)-2,4,5-trifluorobenzamide (Preparation 68, 0.090 g, 0.30 mmol) in DMSO (1 mL). After 10 minutes a solution of 5-chloro-6-methoxypyridin-3-ol (Preparation 77, 0.088 g, 0.51 mmol) in DMSO (2 mL) was added at room temperature. The mixture was heated at 90° C. for 72 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with water (25 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3×25 mL). The combined organics were washed with water (25 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, evaporated in vacuo. The resulting crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with 0 to 66% EtOAc in heptane to yield the title compound (0.068 g):
