Reaction Steps

3-methyl-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)aniline (2.00 g, 8.58 mmol), the product of Step 2 (2.75 g, 8.58 mmol), X-Phos (0.409 g, 0.858 mmol), cesium carbonate (8.39 g, 25.7 mmol), and Pd2(dba)3 (0.393 g, 0.429 mmol) were placed in a flask flushed with Argon. Degassed Dioxane (30 ml) and Water (3 mL) were added and the reaction was heated to 100° C. for 40 h. The reaction was then cooled to room temperature, quenched with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and extracted with EtOAc (3×). The combined organics were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. Purification via flash chromatography (40%-100% EtOAc:hexanes) afforded 8-[5-(3-amino-5-methylphenyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decan-8-ol (1.93 g, 65%) as a brown foam. MS ESI: [M+H]+ m/z 347.
