Reaction Steps

2-[(2-Bromo-pyridin-4-ylmethyl)-amino]-6-fluoro-N-(2-methyl-2H-indazol-6-yl)-benzamide (227 mg, 0.5 mmol) was suspended in dioxane (4 mL) and treated consecutively with DMF (1.6 mL), Pd2dba3 (13 mg, 0.013 mmol), Xantphos (18 mg, 0.031 mmol), cesium carbonate (193 mg, 0.59 mmol) and morpholine-4-carboxylic acid amide (244 mg, 0.75 mmol). The reaction mixture was placed under an argon atmosphere and heated for 3 hours at 110° C. (bath temperature). On cooling the reaction was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic phase was dried, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography on Isolute® Flash silica gel (Separtis) (Gradient elution: 100% CH2Cl2 to CH2Cl2/EtOH 10:1) to give morpholine-4-carboxylic acid (4-{[3-fluoro-2-(2-methyl-2H-indazol-6-ylcarbamoyl)-phenylamino]-methyl}-pyridin-2-yl)-amide (132 mg, 52%) as a pale yellow resin. Further purification was accomplished by preparative reverse phase HPLC [Column: Kromasil C8 5μ, 125×20 mm.
