Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5-bromo-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid dimethylamide (161a) (1.14 g, 4.95 mmol), 4-hydroxy-2,2-dimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-6-carboxylic acid methyl ester (3e) (1.10 g, 4.95 mmol), and K3PO4 (2.10 g, 9.91 mmol), 2-di-t-butylphosphino-2′,4′,6′-tri-i-propyl-1,1′-biphyl (210 mg, 0.495 mmol), and Pd(OAc)2 (111 mg, 0.495 mmol) in toluene (10 mL) was heated to 100° C. in a microwave for 6 hr, cooled to room temperature, filtered through celite, washed with EtOAc, concentrated, and purified by Biotage column chromatography with 35-70% EtOAc in hexanes to give a white foam (238 mg, 13% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.32 (d, J=2.78 Hz, 1 H) 7.70 (d, J=8.59 Hz, 1 H) 7.31 (dd, J=8.72, 2.91 Hz, 1 H) 7.25 (d, J=1.26 Hz, 1 H) 7.19 (d, J=1.26 Hz, 1 H) 3.87 (s, 3 H) 3.15 (d, J=4.29 Hz, 6 H) 2.92 (s, 2 H) 1.49 (s, 6 H); LCMS for C20H22N2O5 m/z 371.20 (M+H+).
