Participants

Reaction Steps

Oxalyl chloride (4.5 mL, 51 mmol) was added to a solution of diazaindole carboxylic acid 50 (1.08 g, 4.7 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (8 mL) and the reaction mixture was stirred 14 h. Catalytic DMF (3 drops) was added to the reaction mixture and after 3 h the reaction was quenched with MeOH. The crude reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness to yield 51 (1.21 g, 49 mmol, 96%) as a tan solid with was used without further purification. 1H NMR: (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 12.45 (br s, 1H), 8.87 (s, 1H), 8.87 (d, J=2.6 Hz, 1H), 8.32 (d, J=3.3 Hz, 1H), 8.14 (d, J=1.5 Hz, 1H), 6.77 (dd, J=2.6, 1.5 Hz, 1H); Methyl ester (obtained by stirring 51 in MeOH): LC/MS: (ES+) m/z (M+H)+=244; HPLC Rt=0.95 min., column 0, conditions B.
