Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-chloro-6-methyl-N-(1-(5-methyl-6-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)pyridin-3-yl)ethyl)pyrimidine-4-carboxamide (40 mg, 0.1 mmol, Step-1 of Example 456, single enantiomer) and cesium carbonate (50 mg, 0.15 mmol) in ethanol (2 mL) is heated by microwave irradiation at 160° C. for 1 hour. After cooled to room temperature, the mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is suspended in ethyl acetate and filtered through a short column of amine gel eluting with ethyl acetate. The filtrate is concentrated and then by preparative LC-MS to give 17 mg (41% yield) of the title compound.
