(5-Fluoropyridin-2-yl)methanamine → 7-chloro-6-[(5-fluoro-pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-amino]-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Use a method similar to the General Procedure 5-1 to couple 2-aminomethyl-5-fluoro-pyridine (230 mg, 1.8 mmol) and a solution of 7-chloro-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetyl)-6-trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine (500 mg, 1.2 mmol) in toluene (4 mL). Purify by chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane/EtOAc (9:1 to 1:1) followed by SCX chromatography to give 7-chloro-6-[(5-fluoro-pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-amino]-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine (302 mg, 64%). GC-MS m/z: 402 (M+).
