Patent ID: 10100053

Abstract:
The present invention pertains generally to the field of organic chemical synthesis, and in particular to certain methods for the synthesis of 8-(4-aminophenyoxy)-4H-pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazin-3-one and related compounds (denoted herein as (3)) from 4-(4-aminophenyoxy)pyridine-2,3-diamine and related compounds (denoted herein as (1)), by reaction with glyoxylic acid (denoted herein as (2)). The compounds (3) are useful in the synthesis of known anti-cancer agents, such as 1-(5-tert-butyl-2-(4-methyl-phenyl)-pyrazol-3-yl)-3-[2-fluoro-4-[(3-oxo-4H-pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazin-8-yl)oxy]phenyl]urea.
