Procedure

To 7-azaindole 1 in dichloromethane was added 6-chloronicotinoyl chloride 8, followed by aluminum chloride, under an atmosphere of nitrogen at −10° C. The reaction was stirred and allowed to warm to room temperature overnight. The reaction was quenched with 3 N hydrochloric acid and concentrated hydrochloric acid was added until all solids dissolved. The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane and the combined organic portions were dried with magnesium sulfate, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated. The resulting solid material was recrystallized from chloroform/hexane to provide (6-Chloro-pyridin-3-yl)-(1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)-methanone 7 and used in the next step without further purification.
