Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4′-[(5-bromo-2-butyl-4-methyl-6-oxopyrimidin-1(6H)-yl)methyl]biphenyl-2-carbonitrile (1.9 g), tributyl(vinyl)tin (2.1 g) and lithium chloride (0.55 g) in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 mL) was added dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.15 g), and the mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 12 hr under an argon atmosphere. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, 15% aqueous potassium fluoride solution was added, and the mixture was stirred for 2 hr. The insoluble material was filtered off through celite, and the organic layer of the filtrate was separated, washed with 1 M hydrochloric acid, saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give the title compound as a colorless solid (1.1 g, 63%).
