Reaction Steps

A 20 mL microwave tube was charged 7-bromo-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine (115 mg), 4-pyridylboronic acid (2 equiv), potassium carbonate (2 equiv), dichlorobis(triphenyl-phosphine)palladium(II) (10 mol %), DMF (3.5 mL) and water (0.7 mL) then heated to 160° C. for 360 s using microwave irradiation. The reaction was concentrated to dryness and the residue was taken up in water then extracted with ethyl acetate/tetrahydrofuran (3:1). The organic extracts were combined and dried over sodium sulfate. The drying salts were removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was triturated with diethyl ether and the resulting solids were collected on filter. Recrystallization from hot tetrahydrofuran provided 7-(4-pyridinyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine as a tan powder (9 mg). H1 NMR (d6-dmso): 8.49 (d, 2H), 8.23 (s, 1H), 7.85 (d, 1H), 7.62 (m, 3H), 7.29 (br t, 1H), 6.80 (d, 1H), 3.85 (m, 2H), 3.25 (m, 2H). Mass (ES+)=224.2 (100%).
