Sodium Carbonate → HCID 19375609, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1,4-Dichlorophthalazine (1.40 g, 7.03 mmol), 4-methylthiophen-2-ylboronic acid (999 mg, 7.03 mmol), and PdCl2(DPPF) (721 mg, 985 μmol) were added into a sealed tube. The tube was purged with Argon. Then sodium carbonate (2.0 M in water) (7.74 ml, 15.5 mmol) and 1,4-dioxane (35.2 ml, 7.03 mmol) were added. The tube was sealed, stirred at RT for 5 min, and placed in a preheated oil bath at 110° C. After 1 h, LC-MS showed product and byproduct (double coupling), and starting material dichlorophthalazine. The reaction was cooled to RT, filtered through a pad of celite with an aid of ethyl acetate (EtOAc), concentrated, and loaded onto column. The product was purified by column chromatography using Hex to remove the top spot, then 80:20 hexanes:EtOAc to collect the product. The product, 1-chloro-4-(4-methylthiophen-2-yl)phthalazine was obtained as yellow solid. LC-MS showed that the product was contaminated with a small amount of dichlorophthalazine and biscoupling byproduct. MS m/z=261 [M+1]+. Calcd for C13H9ClN2S: 260.12.
