Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (4-(2-(5-amino-8-methylbenzo[f][1,7]naphthyridin-2-yl)ethyl)-3-methylphenyl)methanol (from Example 65/Step 1) (0.2 M) and diethyl malonate (2 eq) in dry toluene was added tributylphosphine (2 eq) and N1,N1,N2,N2-tetramethyldiazene-1,2-dicarboxamide (2 eq). The reaction mixture was stirred at 120° C. overnight. Upon completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum and the resulting crude residue was purified by chromatography (silica gel, 50-100% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford diethyl 2-(4-(2-(5-amino-8-methylbenzo[f][1,7]naphthyridin-2-yl)ethyl)-3-methylbenzyl)malonate as a white solid.
