Reaction Steps

A round bottom flask was charged with 2,2-difluoro-2-(3-methoxyquinolin-6-yl)acetic acid (389 mg, 1536 μmol) and DMF (8 mL). The solution was cooled to 0 C, thionyl chloride (224 μl, 3073 μmol), was added and the resulting solution was maintained 1 h at 0° C. Then, triethylamine (641 μl, 4609 μmol) was added via syringe, followed by 1-(3-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)pyridin-2-yl)hydrazine (382 mg, 1844 μmol) and 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (18.8 mg, 154 μmol); both added as solids. The heterogeneous solution was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h, then allowed to warm to rt and stir for 18 h. The mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (50 mL) and the resulting mixture was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were concentrated (heating to 50° C.) and the residue purified by SiO2 chromatography solvent system: CH2Cl2:MeOH 99%:1% gradient 90:10 CH2Cl2 to yield 2,2-difluoro-N′-(3-fluoro-5-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)pyridin-2-yl)-2-(3-methoxyquinolin-6-yl)acetohydrazide (225 mg, 33.1% yield) as a brown amorphous solid.
