Pyridine → 2-[4-Fluoro-2-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylpiperidin-4-yloxy)benzoylamino]-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

The 2-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylpiperidin-4-yloxy)-4-fluorobenzoic acid (507 mg, 2.05 mmol) was diluted with methylene chloride (20 mL). DMF (4 drops) and pyridine (0.2 mL, 2.47 mmol) were added, followed by oxalyl chloride (0.2 mL, 2.29 mmol). Vigorous bubbling occurred. After 1.5 hours, the reaction was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was diluted with methylene chloride (20 mL). N-(5-Chloropyridin-2-yl)-2-aminobenzamide (507 mg, 2.05 mmol) was added, followed by pyridine (0.2 mL, 2.47 mmol). After stirring overnight, the reaction was diluted with methylene chloride (100 mL) and washed with water (2×10 mL). The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The crude residue was purified by flash column chromatography (100% CH2Cl2 to 10% EtOAc/CH2Cl2) to give the desired product (992 mg, 1.74 mmol, 85%) as a white solid.
