Reaction Steps

In a flask were combined 2-bromo-5-(2-trimethylsilanylethoxymethyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carboxylic acid (1.10 g, 2.95 mmol), (S)-3-amino-2,2-dimethyl-butyronitrile hydrochloride (439 mg, 2.95 mmol), EDC (1.3 g, 6.8 mmol) and HOBt (1.15 g, 6.8 mmol). DMF (27 mL) was added followed by i-Pr2NEt (3.6 mL, 20.7 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h and then quenched with water and extracted with EtOAc. The organics were washed with 10% citric acid, sat'd NaHCO3, sat'd LiCl, and sat'd NaCl then dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The residue was purified by SiO2 chromatography (50-100% EtOAc/hexane) to give 1.32 g (96%) of 2-bromo-5-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carboxylic acid ((S)-2-cyano-1,2,2-trimethyl-ethyl)-amide as an off-white powder.
