Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-amino-5-iodo-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid methyl ester (1.5 g, 4.35 mmol) in dioxane (80 mL) were added tributyl(ethynyl)tin (1.4 mL, 4.78 mmol) and (Ph3P)4Pd (251.2 mg, 0.217 mmol) and the mixture was heated to 120° C. for 1.5 h. After cooling to r.t., the solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was purified by two successive flash chromatographies (150 g silica gel, hexanes→DCM:hexanes (3:7 to 1:1) and then (50 g silica gel, hexanes→EtOAc:hexanes (1:9)) to provide the title compound (730 mg, 69%) as a beige-orange solid. API-ES: m/z 244 [M+H]+, rt 5.14 min.
