Procedure

A resealable vessel was charged with Pd2dba3 (0.893 g, 0.975 mmol, Strem), dicyclohexyl(2′,6′-dimethoxy-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl)phosphine (0.858 g, 2.090 mmol, Strem), dicyanozinc (1.636 g, 13.93 mmol), and 6-chloro-5-methylpyridin-3-ol (2.00 g, 13.93 mmol, step 3 intermediate 34). The solids were taken up in DMF (45 mL) and the reaction mixture was purged with Argon. The vessel was sealed and heated in a 110° C. oil bath. After 21 h, the reaction was filtered through Celite and the filter cake was rinsed with 5% MeOH-DCM. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with 40% to 50% EtOAc-hexane to afford the title compound (676 mg, 32%). MS m/z=135 (M+H)+.
