Reaction Steps

To a 100 mL round bottom flask was added a solution of 2-bromo-5-acetylthiophene (0.500 g, 2.438 mmol) and pyridine-4-boronic acid (0.560 g, 4.555 mmol) in a solution of 1,4-dioxane (20.00 mL, 256.3 mmol) and water (4.00 mL, 222 mmol). Cesium carbonate (2.383 g, 7.314 mmol) was added followed by [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]palladium(II)dichloride (0.2407 g, 0.293 mmol). The reaction mixture was fitted with an air condenser and heated to 90° C. and allowed to stir for 18 h. The reaction was cooled to ambient temperature and quenched by the addition of a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate (10.00 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (10.00 mL×3). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure The crude material was dry loaded onto silica gel and then purified using a ISCO (24 g cartridge, gradient hexanes to 100% EtOAc over 30 min) to afford the title compound (0.423 g, 81%) as a yellow solid. LC/MS (AA) ES+ 204. 1H NMR (dmso-d6, 400 MHz): δ 8.65-8.64 (m, 2H), 8.02 (d, 1H), 7.92 (d, 1H), 7.76-7.75 (m, 2H), 2.58 (s, 3H).
