Procedure:
A mixture of N-[(3-bromo-4-methylphenyl)methyl]-N′-{[1,6-diethyl-4-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ylamino)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-yl]methyl}-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide (50 mg, 0.079 mmol), 1-methyl-4-{[3-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl]methyl}piperidine (31.6 mg, 0.079 mmol), Na2CO3 (25.05 mg, 0.236 mmol) and PdCl2(dppf) (5.77 mg, 7.88 μmol) was diluted in a mixture of 1,4-dioxane (3 mL) and water (1 mL) in a 2-5 mL Biotage microwave reaction tube. The mixture was degassed by bubbling argon through it for 5 minutes and it was then heated in a Biotage microwave at normal absorption for 10 minutes at 100° C. The crude mixture was filtered through a PL-Thiol MP SPE+ and was then washed with ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was concentrated under vacuum to obtain a crude residue. It was purified with a Gilson HPLC (with 0.1% TFA in the solvents), eluting with 10 to 70% CH3CN in water at a flow rate of 20 mL/min. The product fractions were combined and converted to the free base with 1 N NaOH, and the basified solution was extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and then concentrated under vacuum to give N-{[1,6-diethyl-4-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ylamino)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-yl]methyl}-N′-({6-methyl-3′-[(1-methyl-4-piperidinyl)methyl]-3-biphenylyl}methyl)-2,6-pyridinedicarboxamide as a solid (5 mg, 8.54%).
