Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-Chloro-7-cycloheptyl-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid dimethylamide (517 mg, 1.2 mmol, 1.0 eq), 6-Amino-nicotinic acid methyl ester (221 mg, 1.5 mmol, 1.2 eq), Cs2CO3 (591 mg, 1.8 mmol, 1.5 eq) and BINAP (38 mg, 0.06 mmol, 0.05 eq) was bubbled in N2 via a pipette for 3 min. Pd(OAc)2 (14 mg, 0.06 mmol, 0.05 eq) was added and the flask was sealed and stirred in an oil bath heated to 130° C. for 3 hr. The mixture was filtered through a pad of celite and washed with etOAc. The organic layer was washed with water, then brine and the organic layers combined, dried over Na2SO4. The solvent was evaporated and the brown solid was triturated with acetonitrile, filtered, washed with ACN and dried under high vacuum to yield the title compound as a light pink solid (236 mg, 0.53 mmol, 44% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, chloroform-d) δ ppm 8.84-8.90 (m, 1H) 8.69 (s, 1H) 8.61 (d, J=9.09 Hz, 1H) 8.51 (br s, 1H) 8.20-8.26 (m, 1H) 6.40 (s, 1H) 4.40-4.53 (m, 1H) 3.87 (s, 3H) 3.10 (s, 6H) 2.48-2.64 (m, 2H) 1.90-2.00 (m, 2H) 1.76-1.86 (m, 2H) 1.63-1.72 (m, 4H) 1.45-1.56 (m, 2H). MS (m/z, MH+): 437.5
