Reaction Steps
TFA salt of 2-{4-[3-(2,4-dimethyl-phenoxy)-2-hydroxy-propylamino]-2-methoxy-pyridin-3-yl}-6-(1-methyl-piperidin-4-yl)-6,7-dihydro-3H-1,3,6-triaza-s-indacen-5-one: To a suspension of 2-{4-[3-(2,4-dimethyl-phenoxy)-2-hydroxy-propylamino]-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-pyridin-3-yl}-6-(1-methyl-piperidin-4-yl)-6,7-dihydro-3H-1,3,6-triaza-s-indacen-5-one (19 mg, 0.034 mmol) in a mixed solvent of THF/CH3CN (1 mL/1 mL) was added a solution of TMSCH2N2 (2.0 M, 2 mL, 4 mmol) at 0° C. After it was stirred at 0° C. for 2 h, the reaction mixture was mixed with MeOH (1 mL), stirred at the room temperature for 22 h, and purified with a preparative TLC plate to furnish a crude which was subjected to HPLC re-purification to afford the title compound in TFA salt form (4.98 mg, 21%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 1.92-2.10 (4H), 2.19 (s, 3H, CH3), 2.22 (s, 3H, CH3), 2.81 (s, 3H, CH3), 3.20 (m, 2H), 3.40 (s, 3H, OCH3), 3.45-3.55 (3H), 3.68 (m, 1H), 4.00 (s, 2H), 4.12 (m, 1H), 4.30 (m, 1H), 4.43 (s, 1H), 4.48 (s, 1H), 5.47 (br s, 1H, NH), 6.27 (d, J=6 Hz, 1H), 6.82 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 6.89-6.97 (2H), 6.98 (s, 1H), 7.15 (s, 0.5H), 7.30 (s, 0.5H), 7.65-7.72 (1.5H), 7.80 (s, 0.5H), 7.95 (s, 0.5H), 9.65 (br s, 1H, NH), 11.11 (br s, 1H, NH); ESI-MS m/z 571.5 (MH+).
