Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of Intermediate 3 (250 mg, 0.81 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (3 mL) was added 2-(chloromethyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine (158 mg, 0.81 mmol), potassium carbonate (224 mg, 1.62 mmol) and 18-crown-6 (40 mg). The slurry was heated at 45° C. for eighteen hours. The reaction was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with water and brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The slurry was filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude material was purified using normal phase chromatography (ethyl acetate/heptane) to provide the alkylated product as a colorless oil. (110 mg, 29% yield). MS (M+H): 468
