(R)-4-bromo-alpha-methylbenzylamine → HCID 67246165, compound

Temperature

200 °C

Palladium acetate (56 mg, 0.25 mmol) was added to a mixture of 5-fluoro-2-methoxyphenylboronic acid (850 mg, 5.0 mmol) and (R)-1-(4-bromophenyl)ethylamine (500 mg, 2.5 mmol) in water (20 ml). This mixture was heated for 5 min at 200° C. in a Smithcreator microwave oven and then diluted with methanol (200 ml). The mixture was purified on a SCX column (20 g) using 2M ammonia in methanol to elute the intermediate amine. Evaporation of solvents under reduced pressure gave (R)-1-(5′-fluoro-2′-methoxy-biphenyl-4-yl)-ethylamine as a gum (580 mg, 2.37 mmol, 96.6%). Triethylamine (41.1 μl, 0.295 mmol) and 1,3,5-trimethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-sulfonyl chloride (20.5 mg, 0.0984 mmol) were added to a solution of (R)-1-(5′-fluoro-2′-methoxy-biphenyl-4-yl)-ethylamine (20 mg, 0.082 mmol) in dichloromethane (1 ml) and the resulting solution shaken at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (500 μl), the dichloromethane layer separated, dried over magnesium sulfate and the solvent evaporated. Purification by preparatory LCMS and removal of solvent under reduced pressure gave the title compound (13.8 mg, 0.033 mmol, 40%): 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ7.37, 7.14 (a/b, 4H), 7.02-6.87 (m, 3H), 4.68 (m, 1H), 4.48 (t, 1H), 3.78 (s, 3H), 3.55 (s, 3H), 2.35 (s, 3H), 2.22 (s, 3H), 1.50 (d, 3H) ppm; MS (ESI) m/z: 417 [M+H]+.
