Reaction Steps

To a slurry of Intermediate 1 (60 mg, 0.18 mmol) and cesium carbonate (237 mg, 0.73 mmol) in DMF (1.4 mL) was added 1-(bromomethyl)-2,3-dichlorobenzene (65 mg, 0.27 mmol). After 5 h, the reaction was quenched with sat aq NH4Cl, poured into brine, and extracted with 20% IPA/CHCl3 (×3). The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated to give a brown sludge. Trituration with MeOH provided the desired product as a beige powder (60 mg, 88%). MS (ESI): mass calcd. for C16H12Cl2N6O, 374.0; m/z found, 375.1 [M+H]+. 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.41 (s, 1H), 8.77 (s, 2H), 7.57 (dd, J=7.9, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 7.49-7.38 (m, 1H), 7.33 (t, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 4.86-4.75 (m, 4H), 3.90-3.81 (m, 2H).
