The resulting biphasic suspension was stirred at ambient temperature and sparged with nitrogen for 10 minutes. The reaction was then treated with dichloro[1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]palladium (11) dichloromethane adduct (15 mg, 18 μmol) and heated to 80° C. in an oil bath. The reaction was heated at 80° C. for three hours and then allowed to cool to ambient temperature overnight. The cooled reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc and H2O. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (3×). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to afford crude product as a dark oil. The crude product was purified by flash-column chromatography eluting with a gradient from 10% to 100% EtOAc/hexane to afford 2-(5-(3′-(methylsulfonyl)biphenyl-4-yl)-1-(2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)propan-2-ol (122 mg, 90% yield) as an off-white powder. MS(ES): 501 [M+H]+.
