Reaction Steps

A solution of tert-butyl 2-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)phenylcarbamate (from step 2) (1.0 eq.) and 3-bromopicolino-nitrile (1.0 eq.) in toluene (0.24 M) was mixed with tetrakis(triphenyl-phosphine)palladium (5 mol %) and 2N aqueous potassium carbonate solution (4.0 eq.). The reaction was heated to 100° C. and stirred overnight. After cooling to ambient temperature, the reaction content was diluted with 2% methanol in dichloromethane and water. The two phases were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with 2% methanol in dichloromethane. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous MgSO4, and concentrated en vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography on a COMBIFLASH® system (ISCO) using 0-40% ethyl acetate in toluene to give a solid which was then triturated in 10% ethyl acetate in hexane to give 8-(trifluoromethyl)benzo[f][1,7]naphthyridin-5-amine. 1H NMR (acetone d-6): δ 9.13 (d, 1H), 9.00 (d, 1H), 8.67 (d, 1H), 7.91-7.94 (dd, 1H), 7.86 (s, 1H), 7.58 (d, 1H), 6.9 (br, 2H). LRMS [M+H]=264.1
