Reaction Steps
A solution of 1,5-anhydro-2,3-dideoxy-3-[1-methyl-4-oxo-6-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1,4-dihydrobenzo[h]quinazolin-3(2H)-yl]-L-threo-pentitol (47 mg, 0.11 mmol), 4-(chloromethyl)-2-(fluoromethyl)pyridine hydrochloride (21 mg, 0.11 mmol), cesium carbonate (98 mg, 0.30 mmol), and PdCl2(dppf)-CH2Cl2 adduct (12 mg, 0.017 mmol) in THF (0.85 mL) and water (0.10 mL) was purged subsurface with nitrogen, then capped and heated at 100° C. overnight. The reaction was diluted with water and saturated, aqueous NaHCO3, then extracted 2× with EtOAc. The organics were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, concentrated, and dried. The residue was purified via silica gel chromatography, eluting with 20-100% ethyl acetate in hexanes to provide the title compound that gave a proton NMR spectra consistent with theory and a mass ion (ES+) of 436.0 for [M+H]+: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.37 (d, J=5.2 Hz, 1H), 8.27-8.30 (m, 1H), 7.91 (s, 1H), 7.80 (dd, J=7.6, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 7.52-7.60 (m, 2H), 7.28 (s, 1H), 6.98 (d, J=4.8 Hz, 1H), 5.42 (d, J=46.8 Hz, 2H), 4.62-4.76 (m, 3H), 4.36 (s, 2H), 4.17 (dd, J=11.2, 5.2 Hz, 1H), 4.06 (dd, J=7.6, 4.4 Hz, 1H), 3.73-3.81 (m, 1H), 3.51-3.58 (m, 1H), 3.23-3.30 (m, 1H), 3.01 (s, 3H), 2.70 (d, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 1.86-2.06 (m, 2H).
