Participants

Reaction Steps

To 1-(2,4-difluorobenzyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridine-5-carboxylic acid (0.15 g, 0.52 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) were added O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU; 0.20 g, 0.52 mmol), triethylamine (0.15 mL, 1.05 mmol), and hydroxylamine hydrochloride (0.036 g, 0.52 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred for 16 hours at ambient temperature. It was quenched with water (30 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×30 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with water (2×30 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, concentrated in vacuo and purified by preparative HPLC to provide the title compound as a white powder (0.075 g, 48% yield). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ ppm 11.14 (s, 1H), 8.92 (s, 1H), 8.85 (s, 1H), 8.21 (s, 1H), 7.78 (s, 1H), 7.26-7.38 (m, 2H), 7.08 (t, 1H, J=8.3 Hz), 6.71 (d, 1H, J=3.0 Hz), 5.64 (s, 2H). LCMS (API-ES, M+H+): 304.1 HRMS (M+H): 304.0886; cal: 304.0898 with C15H12N3O2F2. HPLC: 98% purity.
