Dibromodifluoromethane → 4-{1-[1-(3-bromophenyl)-4,4-difluorobut-3-en-1-yl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl}-7-{[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(3-bromophenyl)-3-[4-(7-[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]propanal (0.05 g, 0.00009 mol) in N,N-dimethylacetamide (2 mL, 0.02 mol) was added triphenylphosphine (0.1 g, 0.0006 mol), dibromodifluoromethane (50 uL, 0.0006 mol) and 0.76 M zinc in THF (0.7 mL). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 18 hs. The reaction was partitioned between water and EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with saturated NaCl, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to give an oil. The product was purified by FCC on silica gel eluting with EtOAc, Hexane (1:2) to give 4-{1-[1-(3-bromophenyl)-4,4-difluorobut-3-en-1-yl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl}-7-{[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (20 mg, 40%) as a clear oil. m/z=560, 562 (M+1).
