Cesium carbonate → 3-{6-[2-(2-Chloro-6-cyanophenyl)-7-fluoro-2H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridin-4-ylamino]-pyridin-3-yl}-azetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-(4-bromo-7-fluoropyrazolo[4,3-c]pyridin-2-yl)-3-chlorobenzonitrile (106 mg, 0.3 mmol), 3-(6-aminopyridin-3-yl)-azetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (57 mg, 0.35 mmol), Pd2(dba)3 (7 mg, 0.0075 mmol), Xantphos (17 mg, 0.03 mmol) and cesium carbonate (196 mg, 0.6 mmol) in dioxane (3.0 mL) was degassed and purged with nitrogen. The reaction mixture was heated at 80° C. overnight. After cooling to room temperature, the resultant mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (50-60% ethyl acetate in cyclohexane) to afford the title compound as a brown solid (100 mg, 64% yield). LCMS (Method C): RT=2.54 min, m/z: 520 [M+H+].
