Cesium carbonate → tert-butyl 3-{[5-chloro-4-(2,5-dichloro-3-cyanophenoxy)-1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-1-yl]methyl}-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

2,5-dichloro-3-[(5-chloro-1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-4-yl)oxy]benzonitrile (1.00 g, 2.94 mmol) and cesium carbonate (1.15 g, 3.53 mmol) were suspended in dry DMF (10 mL) under N2 and tert-butyl 3-(bromomethyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-1-carboxylate (0.965 g, 3.09 mmol) was added as a solution in DMF (5 mL) at room temperature. After 1 hour, the reaction mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (20 mL) and diluted with water (50 mL). The mixture was then extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL). The combined organic fractions were washed with water (3×100 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by automated column chromatography on silica gel (120 g) eluting with 25-50% EtOAc/hexanes. LRMS (M+1)=569.6.
