Reaction Steps
To a solution of {3-(5-Chloro-2-difluoromethoxyphenyl)-4-[(pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carbonyl)amino]pyrazol-1-yl}acetic acid (150 mg, 0.26 mmol) in DMF (2 mL) was added 2-(morpholin-4-yl)ethyl piperidine-4-carboxylate hydrochloride (140 mg, 0.50 mmol), DIEA (101 mg, 0.78 mmol), HATU (119 mg, 0.31 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature overnight and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was passed through a short pad of silica gel eluting with 10% MeOH in DCM. The crude product was purified by Prep-HPLC with the following conditions (Prep-HPLC-005): Column, XBridge Prep C18 OBD Column, 5 um, 19*150 mm; mobile phase, water with 0.05% FA and MeCN (31.0% MeCN up to 38.0% in 10 min, up to 95.0% in 1 min, hold 95.0% in 1 min, down to 31.0% in 2 min); Detector, UV 254/220 nm. This resulted in 35.6 mg (20%) of the formic acid salt of 2-(morpholin-4-yl)ethyl 1-(2-[3-[5-chloro-2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-4-[pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-amido]-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]acetyl)piperidine-4-carboxylate as a off-white solid.
