Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(6-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indol-1-yl)acetic acid (90 mg, 0.370 mmol), (S)-3,5-dichloro-4-(2-(3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl)pyridine 1-oxide (130 mg, 0.308 mmol), EDC (83 mg, 0.432 mmol) and DMAP (75 mg, 0.617 mmol) in dry DCM (5 ml) was stirred at room temperature overnight. Aqueous 1N HCl was added to the reaction mixture and the organic phase was separated, washed with brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under vacuum, and the crude was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel column (DCM/MeOH 96/4) to give (S)-3,5-dichloro-4-(2-(3-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl)-2-(2-(6-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indol-1-yl)acetoxy)ethyl)pyridine 1-oxide (95 mg, 0.147 mmol, 48% yield). MS/ESI+ 645.03 [MH]+; [αD]=−2.157, c=0.510; DCM; 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 8.45 (s, 2H), 7.67-7.85 (m, 2H), 7.51 (d, 1H), 7.32 (dd, 1H), 7.12 (d, 1H), 6.97 (d, 1H), 6.87 (dd, 1H), 7.03 (t, 1H), 6.61 (dd, 1H), 5.98 (dd, 1H), 5.38 (d, 1H), 5.25 (d, 1H), 3.82 (d, 2H), 3.39 (dd, 1H), 3.19 (dd, 1H), 1.10-1.22 (m, 1H), 0.46-0.70 (m, 2H), 0.15-0.46 (m, 2H)
