Reaction Steps

A 250-mL single-neck round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer and reflux condenser was charged with 1,4-dioxane (15 mL), 117c (1.7 g, 10 mmol), 3,5-dibromo-1-methylpyridin-2(1H)-one (5.2 g, 20 mmol) and cesium carbonate (6.4 g, 20 mmol). Xantphos (300 mg, 0.8 mmol) and Pd2(dba)3 (500 mg, 0.8 mmol) were added, and the reaction mixture was heated at 100° C. for 5 h (hours). After this time the reaction was cooled to room temperature. The mixture was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified on flash column eluting with DCM:MeOH (20:1) to afford 117d (1 g, 30%). MS: [M+H]+ 358.
