Reaction Steps
2-(1-Methyl-6-oxopyrido[2,3-e]pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin-5(6H)-yl)acetic acid (30 mg, 0.12 mmol), 3-(4-(4-methoxyphenyl)piperazin-1-yl)propan-1-amine (43.6 mg, 0.17 mmol) and DMAP (1.4 mg, 0.012 mmol) were dissolved in 1 mL of DCM. Diisopropylcarbodiimide (0.09 mL, 0.58 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours and the product was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (DCM/MeOH=10:1, Rf=0.5) to give 30 mg (53%) white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.17 (d, J=4.9 Hz, 1H), 7.87 (dd, J=1.4, 2.9 Hz, 1H), 7.33 (dd, J=1.4, 4.0 Hz, 1H), 7.12 (s, 1H), 6.99 (d, J=5.0 Hz, 1H), 6.84 (s, 4H), 6.68 (dd, J=2.9, 4.0 Hz, 1H), 5.11 (s, 2H), 3.78 (s, 3H), 3.41 (dd, J=5.8, 12.0 Hz, 2H), 3.02-2.91 (m, 4H), 2.74 (s, 3H), 2.63-2.54 (m, 4H), 2.49 (t, J=6.4 Hz, 2H), 1.75-1.69 (m, 2H). 13C NMR (101 MHz, CDCl3) δ 167.9, 155.8, 153.8, 145.4, 143.2, 142.3, 134.8, 124.1, 122.8, 122.6, 120.4, 118.0, 114.4, 113.5, 113.4, 57.3, 55.6, 53.4, 50.4, 44.2, 39.4, 25.2, 22.8.
