Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 4-(2-methyl-4-nitrophenoxy)pyridin-2-amine [WO2007059257] (405 mg, 1.65 mmol) in THF (5.0 mL) at 0° C. was added 2-methoxyacetyl chloride (604 μL, 6.61 mmol) and DIPEA (1.44 mL, 8.26 mmol) and the reaction mixture warmed to RT for 30 min. The reaction was quenched by addition of a 1% solution of NH3 in MeOH (3.0 mL) and was kept at RT for 16 hr. A second aliquot of a solution of NH3 in MeOH (7M, 1.0 mL) was added and after 30 min at RT the resulting mixture was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was subjected to SCX capture and release to afford 2-methoxy-N-(4-(2-methyl-4-nitrophenoxy)pyridin-2-yl)acetamide as an orange oil (357 mg, 92% pure, 63%); Rt 2.07 min (Method 2); m/z 318 (M+H)+ (ES+), which was used directly in the next step (below).
