Reaction Steps

2-Amino-5-bromopyridine (2) was reacted with 4-chlorophenylboronic acid (3) in dioxane/water in the presence of 2.2 equivalents of Na2CO3 and 1 mol % Pd(OAc)2 plus 1 mol % PdCl2(dppf).CH2Cl2 at 90° C. for 1.5 h. After cooling to room temperature the product (4) was precipitated as the HCl salt by adding HCl (25%, 6 equiv) followed by removal of dioxane under vacuum. The salt was filtered, digested in diethylether, filtered and then converted to the free amine by treatment with aqueous NaOH. After filtration, the product was isolated in 78% yield. Alternatively, the product has been isolated by chromatography in 83% yield. MS (Turbo Spray): 207 (52%), 205 (M+H+, 100%), 170 (9%).
