An asymmetric synthesis of the tetrahydronaphthyridine scaffold of TAK-828F as a RORγt inverse agonist has been developed. The synthesis features a newly discovered atom-economical protocol for Heck-type vinylation of chloropyridine using ethylene gas, an unprecedented formation of dihydronaphthyridine directly from 2-vinyl-3-acylpyridine mediated by ammonia, and a ruthenium-catalyzed enantioselective transfer hydrogenation as key steps. This represents the first example of the enantioselective ...[more]
