Abstract
We report a dramatically improved total synthesis of two highly selective (V600E)BRAF inhibitors, PLX4720 and PLX4032, that leverages microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS). Compared with previously reported approaches, our novel MAOS method significantly reduces overall reaction time without compromising yield. In addition to providing a gram-scale route to these compounds for preclinical oncology research, we anticipate this approach could accelerate the synthesis of azaindoles in high-throughput, library-based formats.Entities:
