Reaction Steps

Methyl 3-bromobenzoate (500 mg, 2.33 mmol), caesium carbonate (1.06 g, 3.26 mmol), oxazolidin-2-one (243 mg, 2.80 mmol), 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)xanthene (107 mg, 0.186 mmol) and tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium (0) (43 mg, 0.047 mmol) were refluxed under argon in dioxane (6 ml) for 18 h. After cooling, the mixture was filtered and evaporated in vacuo. Column chromatography on silica gel eluting with a gradient of 10–50% ethyl acetate in hexane gave the title compound (113 mg).
