Nicotinic Acid → (R)-N-(5-(2-(3-fluorophenyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-3-yl)nicotinamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of (R)-5-(2-(3-fluorophenyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-3-amine (Example 6, Step A; 30 mg, 0.1 mmol), nicotinic acid (25 mg, 0.2 mmol), and HATU (77 mg, 0.2 mmol) was added 0.7 mL DMF to make a solution. After cooling in an ice bath for 10 minutes, DIEA (0.053 mL, 0.3 mmol) was added to the reaction drop-wise. The reaction was allowed to warm up to ambient temperature and stirred for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (15 mL), washed with water and brine (5 mL each), concentrated, and purified by reverse-phase column chromatography, eluting with 5 to 57% acetonitrile/water to yield the final product as a yellowish solid (30 mg, 74% yield). MS (apci) m/z=403.2 (M+H).
