Reaction Steps

To a solution of (4-trimethylstannyl-thiazol-2-ylmethyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (0.480 g, 1.27 mmol, 1.0 eq.) [prepared as in the PCT application WO2004046101, Jun. 3, 2004, filed Nov. 10, 2003] in anhydrous dioxane (4 mL), add 7-chloro-3-iodo-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (0.354 g, 1.27 mmol, 1.0 eq.) and LiCl (0.162 g, 3.0 eq.). Add Pd(PPh3)4 (0.102 g, 0.07 eq.). Deoxygenate the reaction mixture and fill with nitrogen. Stir at 90° C. over night, cool, then dilute with 5% MeOH/DCM (100 mL), wash with saturated aqueous saturated sodium chloride (2×20 mL), water (2×20 mL), dry, filter, and concentrate. Chromatograph on silica gel first with a 50%-100% EtOAc/DCM gradient then a 5% MeOH/DCM gradient to afford 0.180 g of the title compound, which is used in the next step without further purification: MS(ES), m/z 365 (M+1).
