Reaction Steps

A solution of INT 26 (1.01 g, 3.6 mmol) in degassed 1,2-dichloroethane (20 mL) containing CuCl (14.3 mg, 0.144 mmol) and 1,3-bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium chloride (41.3 mg, 0.144 mmol, prepared according to: Journal of Organometallic Chemistry (2001), Vol. 617-618, 546-560.) was irradiated in the microwave for 2 hours at 200° C. and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (cyclohexane/EtOAc) to give INT 27.
