Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-iodo-4-dimethylaminopyridine (2.7 g, 11 mmol), 3-methoxyphenylboronic acid (2 g, 13 mmol) and K2CO3 (5.4 g, 39 mmol) in toluene (60 ml) and water (10 ml) were degased with nitrogen for 15 minutes. Pd(PPh3)4 (800 mg, 0.66 mmol) was added and the resulting mixture was heated to 90° C. for 48 hours under nitrogen. After being cooled to room temperature, the aqueous phase was separated and extracted with EtOAc (3×100 ml). The combined organic fractions were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated. The crude compound was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, EtOAc) to afford 2.1 g (84%) of the titled compound as a colorless oil, which solidify upon standing. If some impurities remains, the compound can be purified by following the acidic extraction followed by basic recovery as performed before for 2-phenyl-4-dimethylaminopyridine.
