Reaction Steps

Butyllithium (2.5N, 4.8 mL, 50.96 mmol) was added to a solution of 3-(5-bromopyridin-2-yl)oxy-N,N-dimethylpropan-1-amine (2.07 g, 7.99 mmol) and 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-(propan-2-yloxy)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (2.79 g, 15.00 mmol) in THF (20 mL) at −78° C. over 10 minutes under an inert atmosphere. The resulting solution was stirred for 4 h at 18° C. The reaction was then quenched by the addition of a sat. aqueous solution of ammonium chloride then partitioned between EtOAc (100 mL) and water (100 mL). The organic layer was concentrated in vacuo and the residue purified by FCC, eluting with EtOAc/petroleum ether (1:3) to afford the desired material (270 mg, 11%) as a yellow solid. Mass Spectrum: m/z (ES+)[M+H]+=225.
