Reaction Steps

To [4-(5-ethyl-3-methylpyridin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl](6-fluoro-4-methylpyridin-3-yl)methanone (320 mg) described in Preparation Example 176 was added 4-methoxybenzylamine (1 mL), and the mixture was stirred at 160° C. for 6 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled, water was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and the solvent was evaporated. The obtained residue was purified by column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate) to give [4-(5-ethyl-3-methylpyridin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl][6-(4-methoxybenzylamino)-4-methylpyridin-3-yl)methanone (330 mg). The obtained [4-(5-ethyl-3-methylpyridin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl][6-(4-methoxybenzylamino)-4-methylpyridin-3-yl)methanone (330 mg) was dissolved in dichloromethane (5 mL), trifluoroacetic acid (10 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was evaporated from the reaction mixture, 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was added, and the mixture was extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and the solvent was evaporated. The obtained residue was purified by column chromatography to give (6-amino-4-methylpyridin-3-yl) [4-(5-ethyl-3-methylpyridin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl]methanone. The obtained (6-amino-4-methylpyridin-3-yl)[4-(5-ethyl-3-methylpyridin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl]methanone and triethylamine (0.30 mL) were dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL), 3-chloropropane-1-sulfonyl chloride (0.18 mL) was added under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3.5 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and the solvent was evaporated. The obtained residue was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL), 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (0.16 mL) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and saturated brine, and the solvent was evaporated. The obtained residue was purified by column chromatography to give the title compound (220 mg).
