Abstract:A practical and efficient process was developed for the manufacture of a positive allosteric modulator (PAM) of the α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor via an eight-step synthetic route that furnished a high-quality active pharmaceutical ingredient. Highlights of this synthesis include (1) a highly reproducible palladium-catalyzed cyanation; (2) reduction in the number of steps by revisiting the original protection/deprotection strategy; (3) avoidance of the use of halogenated solvents in all of the steps; (4)… Show more
