Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(3-(cyclopropylmethyl)-2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)thiazole-5-carboxylic acid (0.10 g, 0.37 mmol) in anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL) was added N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.17 mL, 1.34 mmol), followed by the addition of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (0.11 g, 0.59 mmol). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 0.5 hours, 1-Hydroxybenzotriazole (0.07 g, 0.52 mmol) was added, followed by the addition of pyridin-3-ylmethanamine (0.06 g, 0.56 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 hours. The solvent was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was diluted with dichloromethane (150 mL), washed with water (100 mL) and brine (50 mL). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was crystallized in dichloromethane and hexane to yield the title compound as a colorless solid in 40% yield (0.065 g): mp 190-192° C.
