Example 178
To a stirred solution of 6-chloropyrazine-2-sulfonamide (0.3 g, 1.56 mmol) in dioxane (10 mL) was degassed for 10 min with argon. Pd(PPh3)4 (0.17 g, 0.156 mmol) and hexamethylditin (0.48 mL, 2.3 mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. 2-Chloro-5-phenyl-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)quinazolin-4-amine (0.43 g, 1.24 mmol) and LiCl (0.16 g, 4.68 mmol) in dioxane (2 mL) were added to the reaction mixture through cannula and heated at 100° C. for an additional 16 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and water was added. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic extracts washed with brine, dried, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography using 20% acetone in hexanes then further purified by prep HPLC (method H, Column: Waters SunFire 19×100 mm 5 um C18 and TFA/water, acetonitrile as the eluent) to provide 6-(5-phenyl-4-(pyridin-2-ylmethylamino)quinazolin-2-yl)pyrazine-2-sulfonamide (35 mg, 9%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ (ppm): 9.84 (s, 1H),) 9.24 (s, 1H), 8.24 (d, 1H, J=4.8 Hz), 7.98-7.88 (m, 4H), 7.73 (t, 1H, J=7.6 Hz), 7.24 (t, 1H, J=5.6 Hz), 7.00 (br s, 1H), 4.77 (d, 2H, J=3.6 Hz). LCMS Method W: retention time 1.8 min; [M+1]=469.0; HPLC Method A1: purity 98.1%, retention time=6.74 min.
