Reaction Steps

N-(cis-4-Amino-cyclohexyl)-5-fluoro-2-(3-methylsulfanyl-phenoxy)-nicotinamide hydrochloride (100 mg, 0.243 mmol) was dissolved in dimethylformamide (1 ml) and triethylamine (100 μl, 0.729 mmol) was added followed by isobutyric acid (27 μl, 0.291 mmol), 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (56 mg, 0.291 mmol) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (39 mg, 0.291 mmol). The reaction was stirred under nitrogen at room temperature for 64 h and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was partitioned between sat. sodium bicarbonate solution (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 water (2×5 ml), brine (5 ml), dried over MgSO4 and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with diethylether (5 ml) to give 5-Fluoro-N-(cis-4-isobutyrylamino-cyclohexyl)-2-(3-methylsulfanyl-phenoxy)-nicotinamide (110 mg) as a white solid.
