Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Dry DME (402 μL) was added to a mixture of tert-butyl 4-(2-amino-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)pyridin-4-ylamino)piperidine-1-carboxylate (16 mg, 0.040 mmol), 5-bromopyrazine-2-carbonitrile (7.39 mg, 0.040 mmol), xantphos (1.859 mg, 3.21 μmol), tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (1.471 mg, 1.606 μmol), and cesium carbonate (26.2 mg, 0.080 mmol) in a nitrogen purged, sealed microwave vial. Nitrogen gas was bubbled through the mixture for 5 min. The reaction mixture was heated for 1 hr at 100° C. by microwave irradiation. Upon cooling the mixture was diluted with MeOH and purified by ion exchange on Isolute SCX II acidic resin (5 g), eluting with MeOH. The eluent was concentrated and further purified by preparative thin layer chromatography, eluting with 7% MeOH, 1% NH3, 92% DCM, to give 5-(5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-(1-methylpiperidin-4-ylamino)pyridin-2-ylamino)pyrazine-2-carbonitrile (4 mg, 7.97 μmol, 20% yield) as a light yellow powder.
