Abstract
A novel and robust synthesis of the fragment, 2-amino-5-tert-butylpyridine, has been described, which has been shown to have improved physicochemical properties over 4-tert-butylaniline, when considering drug-like properties. The synthesis also yields fragments containing more highly oxidised precursors to the tert-butyl group as intermediates. These fragments can be incorporated into final target molecules, yielding pharmaceutical compounds and their putative CYP-mediated oxidative metabolites, which can aid in elucidation of metabolic clearance processes.
