To a flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, nitrogen inlet and thermowell was added compound 4-(1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-7-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (5, 1424 g, 4.52 mol) and acetonitrile (14 L). The resulting suspension was added 4,4,4-trifluorocrotonitrile (32, 601.6 g, 4.97 mol, 1.1 equiv) followed by 1,8-diazobicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU, 67 mL, 0.452 mol, 0.1 equiv). A slight exotherm (5° C.) was noted upon the addition of the DBU. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes when TLC and LCMS showed the reaction was deemed complete. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure to remove most of the solvent and the residue was purified by two silica gel columns (3 Kg each) for chromatography purification. The column was eluting with 2:1 heptane/ethyl acetate (30 L) followed by 1:1 heptane/ethyl acetate (30 L). The fractions containing pure desired product (33) were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford racemic 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-(4-(7-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)butanenitrile (33, Racemic SEM-protected compound, 1802 g, 1973 g theoretical, 91.3% yield) as a thick oil, which was directly used in subsequent chiral column separation without further purification. For 33: 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz) δ ppm 8.99 (s, 1H), 8.79 (s, 1H), 8.56 (s, 1H), 7.80 (d, 1H, J=3.7 Hz), 7.09 (d, 1H, J=3.7 Hz), 6.05 (m, 1H), 5.63 (s, 2H), 3.82 (dd, 1H, J=17.5, 10.6 Hz), 3.66 (dd, 1H, J=17.0, 4.9 Hz), 3.50 (t, 2H, J=7.9 Hz), 0.80 (t, 2H, J=8.2 Hz), −0.145 (s, 9H); 13C NMR (DMSO-d6, 100 MHz) δ ppm 151.7, 151.3, 149.5, 140.8, 132.9, 130.4, 123.2 (JCF=282 Hz), 121.9, 116.2, 113.5, 100.2, 72.3, 65.7, 57.8 (JCF=32.4 Hz), 17.1, −1.46; C19H23F3N6OSi (MW, 436.51), LCMS (EI) m/e 437 (M++H).
