A mixture of Example 314b (100 mg, 0.190 mmol), 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)isoxazole (44.4 mg, 0.228 mmol), [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]-dichloropalladium (II), complex with dichloromethane (1:1) (15.5 mg, 0.019 mmol), and potassium fluoride (44.1 mg, 0.758 mmol) in dimethylsulfoxide (1.9 mL) and water (0.75 mL) was purged with nitrogen gas and heated under microwave conditions at 130° C. at for 1.5 hours. The mixture was then treated with 1 mL 4N NaOH and stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was partitioned between water and ethyl acetate, and the aqueous layers was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were washed with water (2×), saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, 0-8% methanol/dichloromethane gradient) to give the title compound (30 mg, 48% yield). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 12.00 (s, 1H), 12.00 (s, 1H), 7.32 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 7.34-7.25 (m, 4H), 7.30-7.25 (m, 3H), 7.10 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.10 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 6.14 (dd, J=2.6, 2.2 Hz, 1H), 6.14 (dd, J=2.6, 2.2 Hz, 1H), 3.99 (s, 2H), 3.99 (s, 2H), 3.84 (d, J=6.7 Hz, 2H), 3.84 (d, J=6.7 Hz, 2H), 3.56 (s, 3H), 3.56 (s, 3H), 1.11-1.02 (m, 1H), 1.12-1.02 (m, 1H), 0.48-0.39 (m, 2H), 0.49-0.35 (m, 2H), 0.31-0.18 (m, 2H), 0.26-0.19 (m, 2H). MS (ESI+) m/z 334.1 (M+H)+.
