Biphenyl → 5-Thiazol-2-yl-2,5-diaza-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-bromothiazole (200 mg, 1.22 mmol), palladium acetate (15 mg, 0.06 mmol), sodium tert-butoxide (217 mg, 2.26 mmol), (S,S) 2,5-diaza-bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (280 mg, 1.4 mmol) and 2-Di-t-butylphosphino)-biphenyl (37 mg, 0.118 mmol) was stirred in dioxane (10 ml) at 80° C. for overnight. The reaction was cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate (40 ml) and H2O (50 ml). The organic layer was separated, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and solvent evaporated. The residue was purified by chromatography eluting with 5% MeOH/DCM yielding product as a white solid. (180 mg, 52% yield)
