Abstract

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 ...
