Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1.5 g (6.2 mmol) of 8-bromo-6-methyl-2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)quinoline, 2.3 g of crude 3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyltrimethylstannane (Example 1), and 0.2 g of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(O) was heated in 30 ml of toluene at reflux with stirring for 3 hours. Ethyl acetate (200 ml) and excess water was added. The organic layer was separated, washed with water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo to give an oil. Silica gel column chromatography (20:1 followed by 10:1 hexane/ethyl acetate) afforded 0.7 g of product, isolated as an oil. NMR(CDCl3): ppm 2.55 (s, 3H), 4.71 (q, 2H), 7.15 (d, 1H), 7.5-8.15 (m, 7H).
