Reaction Steps

The title B compound, 3-cyclopentyl-2-(4-nitro-phenyl)-propionic acid (7.5 g, 28.5 mmol) is dissolved in 25 mL of thionyl chloride and a drop of DMF and the mixture stirred at RT for 5-6 h. The excess of thionyl chloride is removed under reduced pressure. The residue is then taken up in DCM and added dropwise to a solution of 5.2 g (28.5 mmol) of the aminothiazole in 25 mL pyridine. The reaction mixture is stirred for 5 h before being evaporated to remove the pyridine. The residue is partitioned between ethyl acetate and brine, extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers are washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate, brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and then reduced to an orange-brown solid. This is then vacuum dried to afford 3-cyclopentyl-N-(5-methoxy-thiazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-2-yl)-2-(4-nitro-phenyl)-propionamide as a foam: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.0-1.1 (m, 2H), 1.4-1.8 (m, 5H), 1.8-1.9 (m, 2H), 2.1-2.25 (m, 2H), 3.6 (t, 1H, J=7.8), 4.01 (s, 3H), 6.8 (d, 1H, J=8.8), 7.4 (d, 2H, J=8.6), 7.8 (d, 1H, J=8.8 Hz), 8.19 (d, 2H, J=8.6 Hz), 9.3 (s, 1H).
