Diisopropylethylamine → 4-amino-5-chloro-2-fluoro-N-(1-methyl-4-piperidyl)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-amino-5-chloro-2-fluorobenzoic acid (Intermediate 176; 500 mg, 2.64 mmol), 4-amino-1-methylpiperidine (452 mg, 3.96 mmol) and diisopropylethylamine (1.38 ml, 7.91 mmol) were stirred in DMF (5 mL) and HATU (1.50 g, 3.96 mmol) added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. The mixture was absorbed on to an SCX column, which was washed with methanol and eluted with ammonia in methanol. Product containing fractions were concentrated to give a crystalline solid that was suspended in diethyl ether and filtered to yield the title compound as a pale brown solid (572 mg, 76%).
