Diisopropylethylamine → N-(2-(6-chloro-5-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl)-5-(2,5-difluorobenzyl)isoxazole-3-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5-(2,5-difluorobenzyl)isoxazole-3-carboxylic acid (0.180 g, 0.752 mmol), 2-(6-chloro-5-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethanamine intermediate 142(0.157 g; 0.752 mmol), HATU (0.286 g; 0.753 mmol) and N,N diisopropylethylamine (0.324 mL; 1.88 mmol) in DMF (5 mL), was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and sodium hydrogen sulphate, the organic layer was washed with sodium carbonate, brine, dried and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude mixture was purified by flash chromatography on silica (eluent 2 to 60% ethyl acetate in heptane and eluent 1 to 10% ethyl acetate in dichloromethane) and by preparative HPLC method 2 to yield 0.0051 g (2%) of N-(2-(6-chloro-5-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl)-5-(2,5-difluorobenzyl)isoxazole-3-carboxamide as a white solid.
