Reaction Steps

A suspension of 1-[4-amino-7-bromo-2-(ethoxymethyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c][1,5]naphthyridin-1-yl]-2-methylpropan-2-ol (1.4 g, 3.55 mmol), 6-fluoropyridine-3-boronic acid (0.597 g, 4.26 mmol), potassium carbonate (1.62 g, 11.7 mmol), dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II)(0.025 g, 0.036 mmol), DME (13 mL), and water (7 mL) was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere and then heated at 110° C. for 17.5 hours and allowed to cool to room temperature. The volatiles were removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was partitioned between water (25 mL) and dichloromethane (25 mL). A solid was present in the organic layer, and methanol was added to dissolve the solid. The aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane (3×20 mL). Silica gel was added to the combined organic fractions, and the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by automated flash chromatography (40+M silica cartridge, eluting with 5% to 15% methanol in ethyl acetate) followed by recrystallization from acetonitrile. The crystals were isolated by filtration, washed with acetonitrile, and dried in a vacuum oven to provide 530 mg of 1-[4-amino-2-(ethoxymethyl)-7-(6-fluoropyridin-3-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-c][1,5]naphthyridin-1-yl]-2-methylpropan-2-ol as white crystals, mp 218-220° C.
