Reaction Steps

To a flask containing tert-butyl((3S,4R)-1-(2-(1-(cyclopropylmethyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-2-yl)-7-methoxy-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carbonyl)-4-hydroxypiperidin-3-yl)carbamate (143 mg, 0.249 mmol) in dichloromethane (DCM) (1.5 mL) was added TFA (0.307 mL, 3.98 mmol) and the reaction was stirred for 1 h. LCMS showed complete reaction. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo to afford a brown oil. This was dissolved in methanol and loaded onto an SCX cartridge (5 g). It was eluted with methanol (3 column volumes) and product eluted as free base with 2M ammonia in methanol. The filtrate from the ammonia fractions was concentrated in vacuo to yield a yellow oil—97% purity by LCMS. The crude product (104 mg) was taken up in DMSO/MeOH (1:1, 1.8 mL) and further purified by MDAP (Method E, 2 injections). The appropriate fractions were combined and concentrated in vacuo to afford the desired product as a colourless oil—((3S,4R)-3-amino-4-hydroxypiperidin-1-yl)(2-(1-(cyclopropylmethyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-2-yl)-7-methoxy-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)methanone (71 mg, 0.150 mmol, 60.1% yield). The free base (71 mg) was dissolved in dichloromethane (DCM) (1 mL) in a vial and HCl (2M in Et2O) (0.075 mL, 0.15 mmol) was added. The resultant suspension was sonicated for 5 min and allowed to stand for 15 min. The solvent was then removed under a positive pressure of nitrogen and the product dried in vacuo to afford ((3S,4R)-3-amino-4-hydroxypiperidin-1-yl)(2-(1-(cyclopropylmethyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-2-yl)-7-methoxy-1-methyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)methanone, hydrochloride (78 mg, 0.153 mmol, 61.3% yield) as an off white solid.
