2M Sodium carbonate solution (0.4 ml) was added to a solution of 3-(benzoxazol-2-yl)-5-bromo-pyridin-2-amine (0.10 g), [4-(dimethylaminomethyl)phenyl]boronic acid (0.075 g) and dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) (0.003 g) in a mixture of 2:7:3:2 DMF:DME:water:ethanol (3 ml). The reaction mixture was heated at 160° C. for 7 mins in a 100 W microwave oven. The solvent was evaporated in a Genevac and NMP (1.8 ml) was added. The mixture was filtered and purified by X bridge preparative HPLC. There was thus obtained the title compound (0.021 g); Mass Spectrum: M+H+ 344, RT 2.82 min.
