Vodobatinib (K0706) is a potent, third generation and orally active Bcr-Abl1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor with an IC₅₀ of 7 nM. Vodobatinib exhibits activity against most BCR-ABL1 point mutants, and has no activity against BCR-ABL1T315I. Vodobatinib can be used for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) research. Vodobatinib is a click chemistry reagent, itcontains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

EXAMPLES

Reƒerence Example 1

Methyl 3-ethynyl-4-methylbenzoate

A mixture of methyl 3-iodo-4-methylbenzoate (2.0g, 7mmol), trimethylsilylacetylene (1.2ml, 8mmol), Pd(PPh₃)₄ (0.42g, 0.3mmol), CuI (0.137g, 0.7mmol) and diisopropylethylamine (2.5ml, 11.4mmol) in THF (20ml) was heated at 50°C for 12hrs under nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and filtered through a Celite^® bed. The clear filtrate was concentrated and the residue purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (elution with 2% ethyl acetate in n-hexane) to provide methyl 4-methyl-3-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]benzoate.

To the solution of methyl 4-methyl-3-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]benzoate (2.3g) in THF (40ml) was added tetrabutylammonium fluoride (1.0M in THF, 3.2ml, 1 1mmol) at ambient

temperature and stirred for 15 minutes, concentrated and the residue purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (elution with 2% ethyl acetate in n-hexane) to provide methyl 3 – ethynyl- 4-methylbenzo at e .

4-Methyl-3-[(quinolin-3-yl)ethynyl]benzoic acid

A mixture of methyl 3-ethynyl-4-methylbenzoate (0.341 g, 2mmol), 3-iodoquinoline (0.5g, 2mmol), Pd(PPh₃)₄ (0.1 1g, 0.01mmol), CuI (0.179g, 0.1mmol) and diisopropylethylamine (0.5ml, 3mmol) in DMF (15ml) was stirred at ambient temperature for 12hrs under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The reaction mixture was concentrated and the crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (elution with 10% ethyl acetate in n-hexane) to provide methyl 4-methyl-3-[(quinolin-3-yl)ethynyl]benzoate.

Sodium hydroxide (0.15g, 3.71mmol) was added to a solution of the above methyl ester in methanol (20ml) and water (3ml) and stirred at 50°C for 3hrs and then concentrated in vacuo. Water (10ml) was added to the residue, adjusted pH to 4.0-4.5 with citric acid. The solid obtained was filtered, washed successively with water and diethyl ether and dried at ambient temperature to obtain 4-methyl-3-[(quinolin-3-yl)ethynyl]benzoic acid. ¹H NMR (500 MHz in DMSO-d₆), δ 2.66 (s, 3H), 7.56 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.75 (t, J; = 15.1 Hz, J₂ = 8.2 Hz, 1H), 7.89 (t, J_} = 13.7 Hz, J₂ = 8.5 Hz, 1H), 7.95 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1H), 8.09 (d, J = 8.2 Hz, 1H), 8.12 (d, J = 8.1 Hz, 1H), 8.17 (s, 1H), 8.75 (s, 1H), 9.1 1 (s, 1H), 12.84 (s, 1H).
