Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl 4-(4-bromopyridin-2-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (1.00 g, 2.66 mmol), 5-chloro-2-hydroxyphenylboronic acid (458 mg, 2.66 mmol) and sodium carbonate (1.13 g, 10.64 mmol) were combined and dissolved in a mixture of dioxane/water (14 mL/4 mL). The reaction mixture was degassed for 20 min with nitrogen and then tetrakistriphenylphosphinepalladium (0) (153 mg, 0.133 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was heated at 70° C. for 18 hours and then partitioned between ethyl acetate (20 mL) and water (10 mL). The organic layer was separated, washed with brine (10 mL), dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified on silica gel by Biotage™ (10% to 60% ethyl acetate in heptane over 20 CV) to give the title compound (700 mg, 66%) as a white solid.
