Reaction Steps

BrettPhos pre-catalyst (6.80 mg, 8.51 μmol), 6-chloro-3-methoxy-4-(methoxymethyl)-1-trityl-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridine (40 mg, 0.085 mmol), cesium carbonate (83 mg, 0.255 mmol), and (R)-1-(1-phenylethyl)urea (20.96 mg, 0.128 mmol) were taken up in dioxane (1 mL) in a 1.5 mL microwave vial and the vial was evacuated and back-filled with N2 (×3). The reaction mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 2 h. The crude reaction mixture was diluted with DCM, filtered through a syringe filter, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in TFA (2 mL), charged with triethylsilane (100 uL), and stirred at room temperature for 10 min. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by mass-triggered reverse phase HPLC. Fractions containing pure compound were filtered through a PS—HCO3 cartridge and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give (R)-1-(3-methoxy-4-(methoxymethyl)-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridin-6-yl)-3-(1-phenylethyl)urea.
