Triethylamine → 6-[(4-Chlorophenylsulfonyl)(2,5-difluorophenyl)methyl]-N-cyclohexylmethylnicotinamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Triethylamine (32 μl, 0.23 mmol), 4-dimethylaminopyridine (12 mg, 0.095 mmol), 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (44 mg, 0.23 mmol) and aminomethylcyclohexane (30 μl, 0.23 mmol) were added to a solution of the [6-[(4-chlorophenylsulfonyl) (2,5-difluorophenyl)methyl]pyridin-3-yl]carboxylic acid (80 mg, 0.19 mmol), which had been obtained in Example 338, in dichloromethane (5 ml). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4.5 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, followed by successive washing with water, a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate and brine. The organic layer thus obtained was dried over magnesium sulfate and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to flash chromatography on a silica gel column and a fraction obtained from the elution portion with hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1 was concentrated under reduced pressure, whereby the title compound (58 mg, 0.11 mmol, 59%) was obtained as a white powder.
