Methanesulfonyl chloride → 2-{7-[(3,4-Difluorophenyl)methoxy]-1,5-naphthyridin-3-yl}acetonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

(7-((3,4-difluorobenzyl)oxy)-1,5-naphthyridin-3-yl)methyl methanesulfonate. To a solution of (7-((3,4-difluorobenzyl)oxy)-1,5-naphthyridin-3-yl)methanol (Example 73, 90 mg, 0.3 mmol) in DCM (4 mL) was added methanesulfonyl chloride (0.05 mL, 0.61 mmol) followed by TEA (0.06 mL, 0.43 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 1 h and quenched with saturated NaHCO3 solution. The mixture was extracted with DCM (2×) and the combined organic layers were dried, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification (FCC, SiO2, 0-80%, EtOAc/hexanes) afforded the title compound as a white solid (73 mg, 64%). [M+H]=381.1.
