Reaction Steps

To a solution of [4-(4-Fluoro-benzyl)-piperidin-1-yl]-(6-methoxy-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-5-yl)-methanone (150 mg, 0.41 mmol) and ground KOH (114 mg, 2 mmol) in anhydrous acetone (15 mL) was added MOM chloride (82 mg, 1 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was warmed to RT slowly and stirred overnight. The solvent was removed, and the residue was treated with water and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried and concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel eluting with EtOAc:hexane (1:1) to give the desired product 130 mg (77% yield) as a white solid. M+H+(411).
