Procedure

HATU (0.60 g, 1.57 mmol) was added in one portion to a stirred solution of intermediate (S)-2-chloro-5-(2-(pyrrolidin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)pyrimidine trihydrochloride (0.46 g, 1.43 mmol, theoretical amount), 2-(pyridin-3-yl)acetic acid (0.25 g, 1.43 mmol) and DIEA (1.0 mL, 5.72 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (10 mL) at ambient temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h before the DMF was removed in vacuo. The residue was taken up in CH2Cl2 and subjected to Biotage™ flash chromatography on silica gel (40M column, preequilibration with 0% B for 600 mL followed by step gradient elution with 0% B to 0% B for 150 mL followed by 0% B to 15% B for 1500 mL followed by 15% B to 25% B for 999 mL where B=MeOH and A=CH2Cl2). There was isolated the title compound (0.131 g, 25%, 2 steps) as a yellow solid.
