Reaction Steps

To a degassed solution of 1.5 g (5.1 mmol) of material from Example 1, 1.2 g (8.1 mmol) of 3-formylbenzeneboronic acid and 1.1 g (8.1 mmol) of potassium carbonate in 30 mL of toluene was added 0.3 g (0.3 mmol) of tetrakis-(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0). The mixture was heated to 100° C. for 16 hours whereupon 5 mL of water was added and heating continued for 1 hour. The mixture was then cooled to ambient temperature and 10 mL of water was added The organic portion was separated and the aqueous portion was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organics were dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography on 50 g silica gel (40% ethyl acetate/hexane) afforded 0.7 g (41%) of the title compound.
