A microwave vial was charged with 6-chloro-N-[1-naphthalen-2yl-ethyl]-[1,3,5]triazine-2,4-diamine (30 mg, 0.1 mmol), 2-boc protected-amino-3-{5-[4,4,5,5,-tetramethyl-[1,3,2]dioxaborolan-2-yl)-pyridin2-yl-]-propionic acid (50 mg, 0.15 mmol) 1 ml of acetonitrile, and 0.7 ml of water. Aqueous sodium carbonate (0.3 ml; 1N) was added to the solution, followed by 5 mol percent dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)-palladium(II). The reaction vessel was sealed and heated to 150° C. for 5 minutes by microwave. After cooling, the reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in 2.5 ml of methanol, and was then purified by Prep-LC to give 7 mg of boc protected 2-amino-3-{5-[4-amino-6-(1-naphthalen-2-yl-ethylamino)-[1,3,5]triazin-2-yl]-pyridin-2-yl}proionic acid.
