    General Procedure for the Preparation of 5,6-Biaryl-3-amino-1,2,4-triazines

    [1160] A solution of intermediate D, a 6-halo-5-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-3-amine derivative. (0.80 mmol) in dioxane (2 mL) is treated with an arylboronic acid (0.92 mmol) and K.sub.2CO.sub.3 (0.23 g, 1.67 mmol). The resulting mixture is diluted with water (1.0 mL), degassed, treated with tetrakis triphenylphosphine palladium (0.05 g, 0.04 mmol) and stirred at 150° C. for 2.25 hrs with monitoring by TLC (hexane/ethyl acetate, 5:5). Upon completion of the reaction, the mixture is diluted with water (30 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×20 mL); the combined organic extracts are then dried over Na.sub.2SO.sub.4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude compound, product A, is purified by gradient flash chromatography or preparative HPLC.

    Alternative Procedure for the Preparation of 5,6-Biaryl-3-amino-1,2,4-triazines

    [1315] The Suzuki reaction to form 5,6-biaryl-3-amino-1,2,4-triazines may alternatively be performed with palladium-containing catalysts such as dichlorobis[di-tert-butyl(4-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphino]palladium(II) or dichloro[1,1′-bis(di-tert-butylphosphino)]ferrocene palladium(II). Residual palladium species may then be removed from a solution of the triazine by treatment with a suitable scavenging agent, such as mercaptopropyl-funtionalised silica (Quadrasil-MP; available from Johnson Matthey) or macroporous polystyrene-bound 2,4,6-trimercaptotriazine (MP-TMT; available from Biotage).

    Typical Alternative to the General Procedure, as Exotified with Example 1(xcv)

    [1316] 6-bromo-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,2,4-triazin-3-amine (1 molar eq.), 2-chloro-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-6-methylpyridine (1 molar eq.) and K.sub.2CO.sub.3 (1.5 molar eq.) are suspended in a mixture of 1,4-dioxane and water (2:1; 10 mL of solvent per gram of bromotriazine). The resulting mixture is degassed, treated with dichlorobis[di-tert-butyl(4-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphino]palladium(II) (2 mol %) and refluxed until full consumption of bromotriazine is observed by LCMS. The cooled reaction mixture is then diluted with water, extracted with DCM and passed through a phase separator. The organic phase is concentrated under reduced pressure and purified by gradient flash chromatography, eluting with mixtures of ethyl acetate and hexanes to afford 6-(2-chloro-6-methylpyridin-4-yl)-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,2,4-triazin-3-amine (61%).

The organic phase is concentrated under reduced pressure and purified by gradient flash chromatography, eluting with mixtures of ethyl acetate and hexanes to afford 6-[2-methyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-4-yl]-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-amine (90%).

    General Procedure for the Removal of Palladium Contaminants from 5,6-Biaryl-3-amino-1,2,4-triazines

    [1318] A solution of a 5,6-biaryl-3-amino-1,2,4-triazine derivative (100 mg) in DCM (1.5 mL) is treated with Quadrasil-MP (42 mg) or MP-TMT (35 mg). The resulting mixture is heated to 50° C. for up to 24 hours then filtered. The filtrate is then concentrated under reduced pressure and the procedure repeated, if necessary.

    [1319] Quadrasil-MP is available from Johnson Matthey, MP-TMT is available from Biotage.

    General Procedure for the Preparation of 3-amino-5-aryl-6-aryloxy-1,2,4-triazines

    [1368] A solution of intermediate D, a 6-halo-5-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-3-amine, (1.99 mmol) in DMSO (5 mL) is treated sequentially with a phenol derivative (7.90 mmol), NaOH (0.31 g, 7.9 mmol) and cesium carbonate (0.64 g, 1.99 mmol). The resulting mixture is stirred at 90° C. overnight with TLC monitoring (hexane/ethyl acetate, 7:3). Upon completion of the reaction, the mixture is diluted with water (15 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×15 mL). The combined organic extracts are dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product, product C, is purified by gradient flash chromatography, eluting with mixtures of ethyl acetate in hexane (e.g. 15%) or by preparative HPLC.
