Reaction Steps

To a round-bottom flask under argon containing (S)-5-bromo-2-((2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl)-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one (227 mg, 0.79 mmol), 4-chloro-3-(5-phenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)aniline (213 mg, 0.79 mmol), Pd2(dba)3 (143 mg, 0.158 mmol), xantphos (260 mg, 0.316 mmol), potassium phosphate (505 mg, 2.37 mmol) is added anhydrous dioxane (1.6 ml). The mixture is stirred at 96° C. for 18 hours, cooled to room temperature, filtered through a celite pad and washed with THF. The crude product is purified by flash column chromatography using 1% methanol in dichloromethane as eluent to give S)-5-(4-Chloro-3-(5-phenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)phenylamino)-2-(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl)-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1(2H)-one as a dark brown solid. LC-MS m/z: 530.1 (M+1).
