Reaction Steps

A solution of 1,1-dimethylethyl 4-({2-amino-5-methyl-4-[(1-methylethyl)oxy]phenyl}amino)-1-piperidinecarboxylate (D75) (0.16 mmol, 60 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (0.5 mL) was treated with N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole (0.24 mmol, 38.5 mg, 1.5 eq) under argon at room temperature, then the mixture was heated at 50° C. for 1 h, concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was treated with 10% aqueous sodium carbonate solution and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The organics were combined, dried and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was finally purified by chromatography on silica (ethyl acetate/petrol ether then methanol) to give the title compound (0.14 mmol, 53 mg, 85% yield). M+H 390.3, 334.3, 316.3 (full molecule and fragments for loss of tert-butyl group and loss of Boc group).
