3-Methanesulfonyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid → N-[2-Chloro-4-(4-fluoro-2-methoxy-phenyl)-pyridin-3-yl]-3-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

The title compound was prepared in analogy to example 90, from [2-chloro-4-(4-fluoro-2-methoxy-phenyl)-pyridin-3-yl]-methyl-amine and 3-methanesulfonyl-5-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid (example 114, intermediate a) after a reaction time of 66 hours. The compound was purified by silica gel chromatography on a 20 g column using an MPLC (ISCO) system eluting with a gradient of n-heptane:EtOAc (100:0 to 50:50), followed by a second chromatography using preparative HPLC (Gemini NX column) eluting with a gradient of methanol:water (containing 0.1% formic acid) (20:80 to 98:2). Colorless solid (30%). MS (ESI): m/z=517.06 [M+H]+.
