Participants

Reaction Steps

Compound 2-1 (0.544 g), (5-ethynyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-yl)carbamic acid t-butyl ester (0.459 g), 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′,4′,6′-triisopropylbiphenyl (0.36 g), bis(acetonitrile)palladium(II) dichloride (0.007 g) and cesium carbonate (0.538 g) were stirred in acetonitrile (8.3 ml) at 70-80° C. for 2 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give (5-{2-[3-cyano-4-(4-phenylbutoxy)phenyl]ethynyl}-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-5-yl)carbamic acid t-butyl ester as a yellow oil. This oil was dissolved in ethyl acetate (6 ml), 10% palladium carbon (containing water about 50%, 0.080 g) was added, and the mixture was stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature for 3.5 hr. The solution was filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated to give the object product (0.519 g) as a pale-yellow powder.
