Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred mixture of (S)-2-amino-3-[ethyl-(6-trifluoromethyl-pyridin-3-yl)-amino]-propan-1-ol (0.04 g, 0.15 mmol) and K2CO3 (0.025 g, 0.18 mmol) in THF (2 ml) under an argon atmosphere was added a solution of cyanogen bromide (0.025 g, 0.18 mmol) in THF (1 ml). The mixture was stirred for 1 hour, then ethylacetate and water were added. The aqueous phase was back extracted with EtOAc. The combined organics were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, EtOAc/MeOH=9:1) to give the title compound as white solid (0.02 g, 46%), MS (ISP): 289.0 ([M+H]+).
