100 mg (0.41 mmol) of 4-(2-bromophenyl)morpholine, 121.0 mg (0.48 mmol) of bis(pinacolato)diboron, 101.3 mg (1.03 mmol) of potassium acetate, 11.6 mg (0.02 mmol) of PdCl2(dppf), 127.6 mg (0.32 mmol) of N-[(3R)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-3-yl]-7-bromo-1-benzothiophene-2-carboxamide hydrochloride (Example 8A), 0.79 ml of 2 M sodium carbonate solution and a further 11.6 mg (0.02 mmol) of PdCl2(dppf) in 2 ml of DMF are reacted by general method D. Drying under high vacuum results in 38.9 mg (48% of theory) of the title compound.
