Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-bromo-2′,2′-dimethylspiro[chroman-2,5′-[1,3]dioxan]-4-one (498 mg, 1.5 mmol), 3-cyanophenylboronic acid (440 mg, 3.0 mmol) and Cs2CO3 (1.460 mg, 4.5 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (4 mL) and H2O (0.5 mL) in a 10 mL CEM microwave test tube was added PdCl2(PPh3)2 (75 mg). After degassed by purging with N2, the mixture was heated to 100° C. for 5 min in a CEM microwave reactor. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (12 g, eluted with ethyl acetate in hexane 0-30%) give 3-(2′,2′-dimethyl-4-oxospiro[chroman-2,5′-[1,3]dioxane]-6-yl)benzonitrile as a yellowish solid (298 mg). MS ESI+ve m/z 350 (M+H)+.
