Reaction Steps

2-(6-Chloro-1-methyl-1H-indazol-3-yl)-5-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carboxylic acid ((R)-2-methanesulfonyl-1-methyl-ethyl)-amide (65 mg, 0.113 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (0.8 ml) and then stirred in an ice bath. Trifluoroacetic acid (0.4 ml) was slowly added and the ice bath was removed. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 3 h then cooled in ice bath. Sodium bicarbonate solution was added and the mixture was extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with sodium chloride solution and dried over sodium sulfate. After evaporation, the residue was dissolved in absolute ethanol (7 ml) and sodium acetate (185 mg, 2.25 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred for 20 h at 60° C. The reaction was cooled, and water and ethyl acetate were added. The aqueous layer was extracted twice more with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to a residue. After purification by silica gel chromatography (methanol/dichloromethane), 18.6 mg (37%) of 2-(6-chloro-1-methyl-1H-indazol-3-yl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carboxylic acid ((R)-2-methanesulfonyl-1-methyl-ethyl)-amide was obtained.
