(2R)-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-methylbutan-2-amine

Conditions: temp:150.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a solution of dried 9-bromo-1,6-dichlorobenzo[c]-1,6-naphthyridine (0.80 g, 2.46 mmol) in dioxane (16 mL) was added (2R)-1,1,1-trifluoro-3-methylbutan-2-amine (2.4 g, 17.2 mmol) and heated to 150° C. for 24-48 hrs. The reaction was concentrated to dryness to give 9-bromo-1-chloro-N-[(1R)-2-methyl-1-(trifluoromethyl)propyl]benzo[c]-1,6-naphthyridin-6-amine. LRMS (ESI) calc'd for (C17H15BrClF3N3) [M+H]+, 432.0; found 432.0. The reaction was concentrated to dryness
