Reaction Steps

A solution of 477 mg (1.55 mmol) of 2-(4-amino-3-bromo-phenyl)-ethanesulfonic acid dimethylamide (as prepared in the previous step) in toluene (13 mL) and EtOH (6.5 mL) was treated with 215 mg (1.71 mg) of cyclohex-1-enylboronic acid and 6.21 mL (12.4 mmol) of 2.0 M aqueous Na2CO3. The mixture was degassed via sonication, placed under Ar, treated with 179 mg (0.155 mmol) of Pd(PPh3)4, and heated to 80° C. for 17.5 h. The mixture was cooled to RT, diluted with EtOAc (50 mL), and washed with water (2×25 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (30 mL). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo. Silica gel chromatography of the residue on a 50-g Varian MegaBond Elut SPE column with 50% EtOAc-hexane afforded 365 mg (76%) of the title compound as a white solid: 1H-NMR (CD3CN; 400 MHz): δ 6.90 (dd, 1H, J=8.4, 2.4 Hz), 6.84 (d, 1H, J=2.4 Hz), 6.62 (d, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 5.70-5.66 (m, 1H), 4.03 (br s, 2H), 3.20-3.13 (m, 2H), 2.93-2.87 (m, 2H), 2.83 (s, 6H), 2.24-2.17 (m, 4H), 1.82-1.74 (m, 2H), 1.74-1.66 (m, 2H). Mass spectrum (ESI, m/z): Calcd. for C16H24N2O2S, 309.2 (M+H). found 309.1.
