Reaktionsschritte

Under an argon gas atmosphere, 2-bromo-5-nitrobenzonitrile (2.0 g), isobutylboronic acid (988 mg), cesium carbonate (5.7 g), and PdCl2 (dppf)-CH2Cl2 (720 mg) were dissolved in toluene (25 ml) and water (1 ml). The mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 18 hours. After the mixture was cooled to room temperature, the mixture was diluted with diethyl ether and water followed by the step of extraction/separation. The organic layer was washed with 1 N-hydrochloric acid, 5 N-sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, the resulting residue was purified on column chromatography (EtOAc:hexane=1:3) to obtain the title compound (1.06 g) as a pale yellow oily substance.
