摘要

Two new, reliable syntheses of a pyrido[2,3-d]-pyrimidine inhibitor of the CXCR3 receptor are described. A nine-step synthesis of the CXCR3 inhibitor (1) from 2-aminonicotinic acid was demonstrated on a multikilogram scale and incorporates a classic resolution to deliver the enantioenriched active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). A second synthesis of the CXCR3 inhibitor starts from (+)-(D)-Boc alanine and 2-chloronicotinic acid and utilizes a Goldberg coupling. This second synthesis, performed on a gram scale, intersects the former route at a common intermediate thereby completing a formal synthesis of the enantioenriched API in higher overall yield without the need for a resolution.
