Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

2.7 mL of (trimethylsilyl)acetylene was added to 30 mL of toluene suspension containing 3.2 g of methyl 2-(benzamido)-4-bromobenzoate, 92 mg of copper (I) iodide, 0.34 g of bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) chloride and 2.7 mL of triethylamine at room temperature and stirred under nitrogen atmosphere at 70 to 80° C. for 2 hours. After the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, ethyl acetate and 1.0 mol/L hydrochloric acid were added and insoluble were removed by filtration. The organic layer was separated and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate after washed with 1.0 mol/L hydrochloric acid and a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution sequentially, and the solvent was evaporated, under reduced pressure. Hexane and diisopropyl ether were added to the obtained residue and a solid substance was separated by filtration to obtain 3.5 g of methyl 2-(benzamido)-4-(2-(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)benzoate as pale yellow solid.
