Water → (R)-2-(3-bromo-4-cyanophenylamino)-3-cyclohexylpropanamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-bromo-4-fluorobenzonitrile (200 mg, 1.00 mmol), (R)-2-amino-3-cyclohexylpropanamide (280 mg, 1.64 mmol) and DIEA (0.500 mL, 2.87 mmol) in DMSO (3 mL) was stirred at 120 C for 18 h. Water and EtOAc were added. The organic phase was separated, washed with 1N HCl, dried over Na2SO4, concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by a silica gel column, eluted with 0-70% EtOAc in hexane to give (R)-2-(3-bromo-4-cyanophenylamino)-3-cyclohexylpropanamide (222 mg).
