Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl 6-bromo-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine-3-carboxylate (102 mg, 0.38 mmol) in THF (3.1 mL) was added a solution of LiOH monohydrate (16 mg, 0.38 mmol) in H2O (2.0 mL). The mixture stirred for 20 min and was neutralized with 2 N HCl. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was diluted in DMF (4.0 mL) under an atmosphere of N2. To this mixture was added 4-(2-chloro-3-fluorophenyl)piperidine hydrochloride (14, 94 mg, 0.38 mmol), benzotriazole-1-yl-oxy-tris-(dimethylamino)-phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (334 mg, 0.76 mmol), and diisopropylethylamine (0.20 mL, 1.1 mmol). The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 h. The resulting mixture was diluted with H2O (20 mL) and the resulting precipitate was collected by filtration. The obtained solids were chromatographed over silica gel (Isco CombiFlash Rf unit, 12 g Redisep column, 0 to 50% EtOAc in hexanes) to provide (6-bromo-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-3-yl)(4-(2-chloro-3-fluorophenyl)piperidin-1-yl)methanone as a white solid (80 mg, 48%): 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.11 (br s, 1H), 8.03-7.95 (m, 1H), 7.71 (dd, J=9.6, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 7.43-7.23 (m, 3H), 5.27-5.17 (m, 1H), 4.80-4.69 (m, 1H), 3.48-3.34 (m, 2H), 3.12-2.96 (m, 1H), 2.02-1.59 (m, 4H); ESI MS m/z 438 [M+H]+.
