Reaktionsschritte

To a suspension of zinc (5.0 g, 77 mmol, highly reactive Rieke metal, 100 mL tetrahydrofuran suspension) and tetrahydrofuran (300 mL) was added dropwise benzyl bromide (7.9 mL, 66 mmol) at 0° C., which was stirred for 4 hours at the same temperature. To this suspension were added bis(triphenylphosphine)nickel (II) chloride (5.8 g, 8.8 mmol) and 2-bromo-5-[1,3]dioxolan-2-yl-pyridine (11 g, 49 mmol) described in Manufacturing Example 210-1-2, which was stirred for another 2 hours at room temperature. The reaction solution was partitioned into ethyl acetate and an ammonium chloride aqueous solution. The organic layer was separated and concentrated under a reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (heptane:ethyl acetate=2:1, 1:1) to obtain the title compound (7.3 g, 62%).
