Ammonia → (R)-tert-butyl 3-(4-amino-5-iodo-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (R)-tert-butyl 3-(4-chloro-5-iodo-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (2.0 g, 4.32 mmol) in IPA saturated with NH3 (20 mL) was stirred at 100° C. for 12 h in a 100 mL of autoclave. The organic layer was concentrated and purified on silica gel chromatography (eluted with PE:EtOAc=1:1) to afford (R)-tert-butyl 3-(4-amino-5-iodo-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (1.5 g, 78% in yield).
