2-(Tri-n-butylstannyl)thiophene → 4-(tert-butyl)-N-[1-methyl-4-(4-methylphenyl)-3-(2-{[5-(2-thienyl)-2-pyrimidinyl]oxy}ethoxy)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]benzenesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To N-[3-{2-[(5-bromo-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]ethoxy}-1-methyl-4-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]-4-(tert-butyl)benzenesulfonamide (Example 3) (111 mg) in 1,4-dioxane (5 ml) at room temperature was added 2-(tributylstannyl)thiophene (103 mg) and bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) chloride (6.5 mg) the mixture was stirred and heated to reflux for 3 hrs followed by 16 hrs. at room temperature. To the mixture was added bis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (II) chloride (6.5 mg) and the mixture was heated to reflux for a further 4 hrs. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 ml), washed with a 10% solution of potassium fluoride in water (100 ml) and brine (100 ml), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica (10 g) eluted with ethyl acetate:hexane (1:1) to yield the title compound as a white solid (75 mg).
