Reaction Steps

7-Bromo-1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-pyrido[2,3-e][1,4]diazepin-3-one (145 mg, 0.6 mmol) and tert-butyl acrylate (307 mg, 2.4 mmol) were dissolved in DMF (3 mL) and the reaction vessel was purged with argon for 5 min. Tri-σ-tolylphosphine (37 mg, 0.12 mmol) and palladium acetate (14 mg, 0.06 mmol) were added and the solution was degassed with argon. Diisopropylethylamine (0.23 mL, 1.32 mmol) was added and the solution was degassed with argon, sealed and heated to 90° C. for 16 h. The reaction was cooled to room temperature and filtered through a bed of celite. The filter cake was washed with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and the filtrate was washed with H2O (5 mL) and brine (5 mL), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to a brown oil. The oil was subjected to silica gel chromatography (5% MeOH./CH2Cl2 to 10% MeOH/CH2Cl2) to yield the title compound as a yellow solid (96 mg, 52%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) 8.18 (t, J=5.7 Hz, 1H), 8.07 (d, J=2.1 Hz, 1H), 7.37 (d, J=15.8 Hz, 1H), 7.35 (t, J=5.3 Hz, 1H), 6.24 (d, J=15.8 Hz, 1H), 4.28 (d, J=5.7 Hz, 2H), 3.98 (d, J=5.1 Hz, 2H), 1.45 (s, 9H); ESI MS m/z 290 [C15H19N3O3+H]+.
