Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridine-4-carboxylic acid[(S)-1-(2-methanesulfonyl-pyridin-4-yl)-3-oxo-propyl]-amide (40 mg, 0.09 mmol) and morpholine (15 μL, 0.17 mmol) in dichloroethane (2 mL) was stirred for 30 minutes. The mixture was then acidified (pH=4) with acetic acid (9 μL, 0.2 mmol) and then sodium triacetoxyborohydride (36 mg, 0.17 mmol) was added. After 2 hours, the reaction was quenched with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (20 mL) and extracted with dichloromethane (3×20 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The oily residue was purified by silica gel chromatography using a gradient of 0-10% methanol in EtOAc. The solid material from the column was purified a second time by reversed-phase HPLC using a 20 minute gradient of 5-95% MeCN (0.1% TFA) in H2O (0.1% TFA) (flow rate=25 mL/minute). Desired fractions from the column was made basic with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (2 mL), concentrated to half of the original volume and extracted with EtOAc (3×10 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to afford the title compound as a white solid.
