Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-bromo-7-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-(2-methyl-2H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-ylmethoxy)pyrazolo[1,5-d][1,2,4]triazine (60.2 mg, 0.149 mmol), 3-trifluoromethylbenzeneboronic acid (42.3 mg, 0.223 mmol) and cesium carbonate (96.9 mg, 0.297 mmol) in anhydrous 1,4-dioxane (5 ml) was degassed using three freeze-pump-thaw cycles. Tris(dibenzylideneacetone)palladium(0) (13.8 mg, 0.0151 mmol) and a 0.1 M solution of tri-tert-butylphosphine in 1,4-dioxane (0.357 ml, 0.357 mmol) was added, and the mixture was further degassed with two more freeze-pump-thaw cycles before heating at 90° C. under nitrogen for 17 h. The mixture was filtered through glass fibre paper, washing well with ethyl acetate (25 ml). The filtrate was washed with saturated aqueous NaCl (10 ml), and the aqueous layer was further extracted with ethyl acetate (25 ml). The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, 2% MeOH/CH2Cl2) to give 56.3 mg (81%) of the title compound as a yellow solid: mp=152-155° C. (EtOAc-isohexane); 1H NMR (360 MHz, CDCl3) δ 3.79 (3H, s), 5.58 (2H, s), 7.31 (1H, m), 7.41 (1H, td, J=7.6 and 0.9 Hz), 7.63-7.68 (3H, m), 7.80 (1H, m), 7.85-7.86 (2H, m), 7.93 (1H, s), 9.44 (1H, s); MS (ES+) m/e 470 [MH]+. Anal. Found C, 56.22; H, 3.35; N, 20.59%. C22H15F4N7O requires C, 56.29; H, 3.22; N, 20.89%.
