Reaction Steps

A solution of (6-bromo-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-3-yl)(4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)piperidin-1-yl)methanone (90 mg, 0.19 mmol) in DMF (2.2 mL) zinc cyanide (45 mg, 0.38 mmol) was sparged with Ar for 15 min. To the solution was added Pd(PPh3)4 (22 mg, 0.019 mmol) and the vessel was sealed and heated to 130° C. microwaves for 30 min. The mixture was diluted with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (10 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3×20 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated brine solution (30 mL) and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was chromatographed over silica gel (Isco CombiFlash Rf unit, 12 g Redisep column, 0% to 50% EtOAc in hexanes) followed by HPLC (Phenomenex Luna C18 (2), 250.0×50.0 mm, 15 micron, H2O with 0.05% TFA and CH3CN with 0.05% TFA) and was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (3×30 mL) then freeze dried to provide 3-(4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)piperidine-1-carbonyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine-6-carbonitrile as a white solid (32 mg, 40%): mp 158-162° C.; 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 9.53 (s, 1H), 8.14 (dd, J=9.0, 0.9 Hz, 1H), 7.82 (dd, J=9.6, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.77-7.67 (m, 1H), 7.61-7.47 (m, 2H), 5.19-5.04 (m, 1H), 4.80-4.67 (m, 1H), 3.46-3.14 (m, 2H, overlaps with H2O), 3.12-2.94 (m, 1H), 2.02-1.70 (m, 4H); ESI MS m/z 418 [M+H]+.
