Triethylamine → 1-[4-(7-Ethynyl-3-phenyl-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)-phenyl]-cyclobutylamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-[4-(3-phenyl-7-trimethylsilanylethynyl-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)-phenyl]-cyclobutylamine (31 mg, 0.07 mmol) in THF (0.5 mL) was added a 1 M solution of tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride in THF (0.2 mL, 0.2 mmol, 3.0 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 18 h, then was separated between water (15 mL) and EtOAc (15 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (2×15 mL). The combined organic phases were washed with water (15 mL), dried (Na2SO4 anh) and concentrated under reduced pressure. The remaining material was treated with triethylamine (0.03 mL, 0.21 mmol, 3.0 equiv) and the resulting material was purified using MPLC (Biotage Isolera Flash NH2 Snap 10 reverse phase column; 100% CH2Cl2 for 8.5 min., gradient to 95% CH2Cl2: 5% MeOH over 7 min.; 95% CH2Cl2: 5% MeOH for 9 min.) to give 1-[4-(7-ethynyl-3-phenyl-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-yl)-phenyl]-cyclobutylamine (12 mg, 39%).
