Reaction Steps

The reaction mixture of 2-(2-aminopyridin-3-yl)-1-benzothiophene-5-carboxylic acid (54 mg, 0.2 mmol, 1 eq), 2-fluoro-5-methylaniline (0.048 mL, 2.1 eq), DMAP (5 mg, 0.2 eq), and EDCI (46.1 mg, 1.2 eq) in anhydrous 1,2-dichloroethane (2 mL) and anhydrous DMF (0.5 mL) was stirred and heated at 60° C. for 1 hour. It was then diluted with ethyl acetate, washed sequentially with aqueous NH4Cl, saturated aqueous NaHCO3, and brine, and finally dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The upper, clear solution-layer was decanted, concentrated, and the solid residue was subject to a gradient column chromatography (EtOAc-Hex 1:4 to 1:1) to yield 2-(2-aminopyridin-3-yl)-N-(2-fluoro-5-methylphenyl)-1-benzothiophene-5-carboxamide as a white solid in amount of 39.8 mg.
