Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5-bromo-N-42′-fluoro-[2,4′-bipyridin]-5-yl)methyl)picolinamide 38-4 (38.6 mg, 0.1 mmol), 2-hydroxypyridine 44-1 (19.0 mg, 0.2 mmol), CuI (9.5 mg, 0.05 mmol), trans-N1,N2-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2-diamine (7.1 mg, 0.05 mmol) and K2CO3 (28 mg, 0.20 mmol) in toluene (0.6 mL) was stirred at 108° C. for 8 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was filtered through celite (washed with ethyl acetate) and the filtrate was concentrated with rotavap. The residue was subjected to preparative reverse phase HPLC separation to give N-42′-fluoro-[2,4′-bipyridin]-5-yl)methyl)-2-oxo-2H-[1,3′-bipyridine]-6′-carboxamide 44 as a solid.
