Reaction Steps

1-[5-Bromo-(3-pyridylcarbamoyl]-5-methoxy-6-trifluoromethylindoline (D26) (0.3 g, 0.7 mmoles) and 4-methyl-3-pyridylboronic acid (0.12 g, 0.9 mmoles) was heated under reflux in dimethoxyethane (80 ml) and water (10 ml) with sodium carbonate (0.15 g, 1.4 mmoles) and palladium tetrakis triphenylphosphine (0.1 g, 12 mole %) under an inert atmosphere for 18 hours. After cooling the mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate (250 ml) and water (200 ml). The organic layer was separated and washed with saturated sodium chloride solution then dried (Na2SO4). Evaporation of the solvent followed by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with 3-7% MeOH/CH2Cl2 and recrytallisation from ethyl acetate/60-80 petrol gave the title compound (E35) (0.2 g, 65%) m.p. 125-8° C.
