Participants

Reaction Steps

1 g of 2-(bromomethyl)pyridine hydrobromide was reacted with methyl 4-mercaptobenzoate via Procedure Q to afford methyl 4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylthio)benzoate. 500 mg of methyl 4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylthio)benzoate was reacted via Procedure R to give methyl 4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylsulfonyl)benzoate. 470 mg of methyl 4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylsulfonyl)benzoate was hydrolyzed via Procedure M to give 4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylsulfonyl)benzoic acid. 70 mg of 4-chloro-3-(pyridin-2-yl)aniline was coupled to 4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylsulfonyl)benzoic acid via Procedure G. The product was purified on reverse phase HPLC to yield N-(4-chloro-3-(pyridin-2-yl)phenyl)-4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylsulfonyl)benzamide. MS (Q1) 464.1 (M)+.
