Reaction Steps

1-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (0.068 mL, 0.51 mmol), methyl 2-amino-2-methylpropanoate (0.05 g, 0.43 mmol),BUTYLDI-1-ADAMANTYLPHOSPHINE (0.015 g, 0.04 mmol), sodium 2-methylpropan-2-olate (0.082 g, 0.85 mmol) and diacetoxypalladium (4.79 mg, 0.02 mmol) was added to a microwave vial. (TRIFLUOROMETHYL)-BENZENE (0.5 mL) was used as solvent, before use the solvent was bubbled with nitrogen (1-1.2 mL/mmol amine). The mixture was bubbled with nitrogen before the vial was sealed. The mixture was heated in microwave at 180° for 60min.. The mixture was heated in microwave at 180° for 60min. No conversion of startingmaterial was observed.
