A facile and scaleable synthesis of a potent and selective histamine H 3 receptor antagonist, ABT-239 (1), was developed starting from commercially available 4′-hydroxy-biphenyl-4-carbonitrile (2). The synthesis comprised four chemical steps and a salt formation step with an overall yield of 40%. A highly selective monoiodination of a phenol was developed and used to prepare iodophenol (3b) in near quantitative yield using NIS in AcOH in the presence of a small amount of H2SO4. A Pd-catalyzed cross coupling reaction of the iodophenols (3b) with butyn-3-ol (4a) provided benzofuran (5) in one step in >80% yield, en route to 1. The new process required no chromatographic purification throughout the synthesis and was successfully demonstrated on scale-up to prepare 1.7 kg of the target ABT-239 (1).

2-Aminoethylbenzofurans constitute a new class of H3 antagonists that are more rotationally constrained than most previously reported H3 antagonists. They retain high potency at human and rat receptors, with efficient CNS penetration observed in 35. The SAR of the basic amine moiety was compared in three different series of analogues. The greatest potency was found in analogues bearing a 2-methylpyrrolidine, a 2,5-dimethylpyrrolidine, or a 2,6-dimethylpiperidine.
