Reaction Steps

Add to a solution of trans-{4-[6-(1-benzyl-piperidin-4-ylamino)-9-isopropyl-9H-purin-2-ylamino]-cyclohexyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (8b, 1 g, 1 mmol) and methanol (40 ml), a suspension of palladium black (0.25 g) in a little water. Then add a solution of ammonium formate (0.4 mg, 6.4 mmol) and 10 ml of water, and reflux overnight. Filter the reaction through Celite® and concentrate the filtrate to dryness. Dissolve the residue in methylene chloride (50 ml), extracted with water, and filter through Celite® to remove a milky white precipitate. Separate the organic layer, wash with brine, dry over sodium sulfate, filter and concentrate the filtrate to dryness. Purify the residue on a 40 gram silica gel column (Biotage) using DCM/methanol (4:1) to give 0.8 grams of trans-{4-[9-isopropyl-6-(piperidin-4-ylamino)-9H-purin-2-ylamino]-cyclohexyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (9b).
