Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-hydroxyacetamide (93.3 mg, 1.24 mmol) and triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate (234 mg, 1.23 mmol) in THF (2 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The solvent was removed and the residue dissolved in ethanol (0.7 mL) and added to a suspension of {(5S)-5-[(6-aminothieno[3,2-b]pyridin-7-yl)amino]tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl}acetonitrile (101 mg, 0.350 mmol) in ethanol (2.6 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 1 h, and then cooled to room temperature. The solid was filtered off. The filtrate was diluted with methanol and purified with prep-LCMS (XBridge C18 column, eluting with a gradient of acetonitrile/water containing 0.1% ammonium hydroxide, at flow rate of 60 mL/min) to give the desired product (40 mg, 35%). LCMS calculated for C16H17N4O2S (M+H)+: m/z=329.1. Found: 329.1. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 500 MHz) δ 8.98 (s, 1H), 8.04 (d, J=5.5 Hz, 1H), 7.69 (d, J=5.5 Hz, 1H), 5.89 (s, 1H), 4.92 (m, 1H), 4.87 (s, 2H), 4.28 (m, 1H), 4.18-4.11 (m, 1H), 3.98 (m, 1H), 2.95 (dd, J=17.0, 4.3 Hz, 1H), 2.83 (dd, J=17.0, 6.6 Hz, 1H), 2.64 (m, 1H), 2.49 (m, 1H), 2.22 (m, 1H), 2.06 (m, 1H) ppm.
