Example B-l

Example B-l Step a

To a solution of 4-bromobenzene-l,2-diamine (2.5 g, 13.37 mmol) in DCM (30 mL) was added (S)-2-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-3,3-dimethylbutanoic acid (3.09 g, 13.37 mmol), DIPEA (2.334 mL, 13.37 mmol) and HATU (5.08 g, 13.37 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted with DCM. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried over Na₂S0₄, filtered and concentrated. The crude material was purified by ISCO using 40 g Redisep silica column, CHCl₃/MeOH as eluant to obtain (S)-tert-butyl ( 1 -((2-amino-4-bromophenyl)amino)-3 ,3 -dimethyl- 1 -oxobutan-2-yl) carbamate (1.82 g) as yellow solid.
