Procedure

Procedure D may also be used to couple 4-chloro-3-(pyridin-2-yl)aniline and 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoyl chloride to produce 2-chloro-N-(4-chloro-3-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl)-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzamide which is collected by suction filtration and the HCl salt is washed with Et2O (or alternatively with MTBE). This material is freebased using EtOAc/aq NaHCO3 and the organics are dried and concentrated to the solid freebase. This material is then crystallized from acetone:EtOAc (80:20, approx 10 mL/g) which is then finally recrystallized from hot slurry of iPrOAc. 2-chloro-N-(4-chloro-3-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl)-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzamide HCl salt may also be dissolved in distilled water followed by freebasing with 0.5 N NaOH solution (pH to 11) and filtering and vacuum drying the precipitate.
