Compound
27:
methyl
2-amino-5-tert-butylthiophene-3-carboxylate:
triethylamine (225 mg, 2.5 mmol) was added to a vigorously stirred mixture
of cyanoacetic acid methyl ester (500 mg, 5 mmol), sulfur powder (162 mg,
5 mmol) and DMF (10 mL) at 50 °C. 3,3-Dimethylbutyraldehyde (505 mg,
5 mmol) in 4 mL of DMF was added dropwise to this suspension, while
maintaining the temperature at 50 °C. When the addition was complete, the
reaction mixture was allowed to cool to rt and stirred overnight. The reaction
mixture was partitioned in water and ether. The ether layer was washed with
water (15 mL Â 4), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated
under reduced pressure to afford a yellow solid, 68% yield. m/z ES+ = 214.08,
calcd 214.08; 1H NMR d ppm 7.15 (s, 2H), 6.48 (s, 1H), 3.69 (s, 3H), 1.25 (s, 9H).

Compound
29:
6-tert-butyl-1H-thieno[2,3-d][1,3]oxazine-2,4-dione:
compound 27 (63 mg, 0.30 mmol), 2-aminothiophene and 0.6 mL of 1 M
NaOH aqueous solution were combined in a conical bottom microwave vial.
The slurry was irradiated under microwave at 150 °C for 30 min. Triphosgene
(44 mg, 0.15 mmol) in 1 mL toluene was added slowly with vigorous stirring.
The resulting mixture was allowed to stir at rt for 2 h. The precipitate was
filtered and washed successively with water, hexane and ether, then dried in
vacuo to give compound 29 with 83% yield. m/z ES+ = 226.09, calcd 226.05; 1
NMR d ppm 12.60 (s, 1H), 6.92 (s, 1H), 1.23 (s, 9H).

Compound
carboxylic acid: compound 29 (125 mg, 0.56 mmol), 5-aminoindazole
(74 mg, 0.56 mmol) and 4.5 mL of acetonitrile were added to 5 mL
microwave vial After the subsequent addition of neat triethylamine (154 L,
1.11 mmol), the resulting mixture was irradiated under microwave at 100 °C
for 30 min. The solvent was removed in vacuo. Flash column chromatography
(0–10% MeOH in dichloromathane, linear gradient over 30 min) provided
compound 18 as a off-white solid. m/z ES+ = 359.32, calcd 359.11; 1H NMR d
ppm 12.94 (br s, 1H), 10.05 (s, 1H), 8.00 (s, 1H), 7.99 (d, J = 1.20 Hz, 1H), 7.48 (d,
J = 8.84 Hz, 1H), 7.36 (dd, J = 8.84, 1.60 Hz, 1H), 6.77 (s, 1H), 1.32 (s, 9H). Urea

Compound 9: 1-(5-tert-butyl-3-((2-(dimethylamino)ethyl)carbamoyl)thiophen-
2-yl)-3-(1H-indazol-5-yl)urea: compound 18 (1.79 g, 5 mmol), N,N-dimethyl-
ethane-1,2-diamine (0.44 g, 5 mmol), and 40 mL of DMF were added to a round
bottom flask and stirred until completely dissolved. Diisopropylethylamine
(776 mg, 6 mmol) was added, followed by HATU (2.09 g, 5.5 mmol). The
resulting solution was stirred at rt for 1 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo.
Flash column chromatography (NH4OH/MeOH/DCM, 0.5:5:94.5) gave
compound 9 with 81% yield. m/z ES+ = 429.29, calcd 429.20; 1H NMR d ppm
