Reaction Steps

To a solution of the title compound of Example 5 Step A (0.32 mmol, 145 mg), the hydrochloride salt of 2-hydroxy β-alanine methyl ester (0.48 mmol, 74 mg), HOBt (0.8 mmol, 121 mg) and EDC (0.96 mmol, 183 mg) in 2 mL of DMF was added DIEA (1.6 mmol, 0.28 mL). After 3 h the reaction was partitioned into EtOAc/brine. The organic phase was dried with MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was purified by flash chromatography on silica eluting with 1:25:74 MeOH/EtOAc/DCM, affording the title compound as a foamy solid. 1HNMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 8.47 (t, 1H), 7.75 (d, 2H), 7.60 (m, 1H), 7.48 (m, 1H), 7.45 (d, 2H), 7.30-7.37 (overlapping m, 2H), 4.80 (s, 2H), 3.76 (s, 3H), 3.70 (m, 1H), 3.60 (s, 3H), 3.50 (m, 1H), 3.39 (m, 1H), 2.02 (m, 2H), 1.82 (m, 2H), 1.71 (m, 2H), 1.18 (m, 2H), 1.03 (m, 1H), 0.85 (s, 9H). MS (ESI): m/z 521 (M+H). HPLC A: 1.94 min.
