Example 95
To a solution of tert-butyl 4-(3-isopropyl-2-(8-isopropyl-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-6-yl)-1H-indol-5-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (140 mg, 0.279 mmol) in DCM (10 mL) was added 4 M HCl in dioxane (5 mL) at ambient temperature. The mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 h. The solution was concentrated to afford crude product. The crude sample was purified by preparative LCMS with the following conditions: Waters Xbridge C18, 19×150 mm, 5 m; Guard Column: Waters Xbridge C18, 19×10 mm, 5 μm; Mobile Phase A: 5:95 Methanol:water with 10 mM NH4OAc; Mobile Phase B: 95:5 Methanol:water with 10 mM NH4OAc; Gradient: 15-65% B over 25 minutes, followed by a 10 minute hold at 65% B and 5 minute hold at 100% B; Flow: 15 mL/min. Fractions containing the product were combined and dried using a Genevac centrifugal evaporator to provide 8-isopropyl-6-(3-isopropyl-5-(piperidin-4-yl)-1H-indol-2-yl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine (1.5 mg, 1.3%) as a white solid. LC retention time=1.49 min [E]. MS (E−) m/z: 402 (M+H).
