Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 8-(1-aminoethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-2-morpholino-4-oxo-4H-chromene-6-carboxamide (350 mg, 1.01 mmol, single enantiomer, [α]D20°: +35° in acetonitrile), cesium carbonate (1288 mg, 3.95 mmol), (9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphine) (147 mg, 0.25 mmol) and 1-bromo-3-chloro-5-fluorobenzene (467 mg, 2.23 mmol) in degassed 1,4-dioxane (2 ml), was added tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium (70 mg, 0.08 mmol). The suspension was heated in a sealed container at 95° C. for 16 hrs. The reaction mixture was filtered through a short pad of dicalite and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with 0 to 8% isopropanol in DCM. The solvent was evaporated to dryness, the product triturated with diethyl ether—DCM (9:1), collected by filtration and dried to afford 8-(1-(3-chloro-5-fluorophenylamino)ethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-2-morpholino-4-oxo-4H-chromene-6-carboxamide (320 mg; 67%) as a clear yellow solid. Mass Spectrum: M+H+ 474. [α]D20°: −138°. NMR Spectrum (DMSOd6): 1.52 (d, 3H), 2.75 (bs, 3H), 2.95 (bs, 3H), 3.49-3.63 (m, 4H), 3.70-3.79 (m, 4H), 4.98-5.07 (m, 1H), 5.60 (s, 1H), 6.23 (d, 1H), 6.42 (d, 1H), 6.43 (ddd, 1H), 6.94 (d, 1H), 7.54 (d, 1H), 7.80 (d, 1H).
