Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-(3-methoxyquinolin-6-yl)acetic acid (0.22 g, 1.0 mmol), 1-(5-chloro-3-fluoropyridin-2-yl)hydrazine (0.11 g, 0.68 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (0.97 g, 2.0 mmol) (on solid support) in DCM (5 mL) was added DIEA (0.24 ml, 1.4 mmol) followed by 2,2,2-trichloroacetonitrile (0.14 ml, 1.4 mmol) via a syringe. The mixture was then heated to 150° C. for 15 minutes in an appropriately sealed vial. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was diluted with 50 mL of EtOAc. The solution was washed with 30 mL of satd. NaHCO3 followed by 30 mL of brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by a silica gel column chromatography (EtOAc to 10% MeOH/EtOAc) to give light yellow solid as desired product. MS (ESI pos. ion) m/z: 343 (MH+). Calc'd exact mass for C11H12ClFN4O: 342.
