Participants

Reaction Steps

Benzyl 2-[3,5-dichloro-2-methyl-6-oxo-1(6H)-pyrazinyl]acetate (preparation 17) (404 mg, 1.23 mmol) was added to a solution of [(2R)-1-cyclopentylpyrrolidinyl]methylamine (preparation 143) (208 mg, 1.23 mmol) in ethyl acetate (10 ml), followed by triethylamine (190 ml, 1.36 mmol), and the reaction heated under reflux overnight under a nitrogen atmosphere. The cooled mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water, brine, then dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by chromatography using a Biotage™ (KP-Sil™ 60 Å silica gel) cartridge and an elution gradient of dichloromethane:methanol:0.88 ammonia (100:0:0 to 95:5:0.5) to give the desired product as a cream solid, (450 mg, 80%).
