Participants

Reaction Steps

2-[3-(Ethylsulfanyl)phenoxy]-5-fluoronicotinic acid (250 mg, 0.85 mmol) was dissolved in dimethylformamide (5 ml) and triethylamine (475 μl, 3.41 mmol) was added followed by (1S,2R)-2-aminocyclohexanol hydroformate (144 mg, 0.89 mmol), 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (180 mg, 0.94 mmol) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (127 mg, 0.94 mmol). The reaction was stirred under nitrogen at room temperature for 18 h and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was partitioned between water (5 ml) and ethyl acetate (10 ml) and the aqueous phase was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×10 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (5 ml), dried over MgSO4 and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography using dichloromethane:methanol:0.880 ammonia (98:2:0.2) as eluant to give 2-[3-(ethylsulfanyl)phenoxy]-5-fluoro-N-[(1R,2S)-2-hydroxycyclohexyl]nicotinamide (60 mg) as a colourless oil.
