Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 5-bromo-2-(4-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}cyclohex-1-en-1-yl)-3-methylpyridine (5.59 g) of Reference Example 110(1), benzophenonimine (2.77 g), palladium acetate (41 mg), (±)-2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl (114 mg) and sodium tert-butoxide (2.1 g) in toluene (30 ml) was stirred under reflux for two hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was left stand, concentrated hydrochloric acid (20 ml) and water (60 ml) were added and stirred at room temperature for two hours. Then, diethyl ether was added and extracted with 1N hydrochloric acid aqueous solution. The resulting aqueous layer was cooled with ice, adjusted to pH>10 by the addition of 4N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide and extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated to give the titled compound (2.52 g) as a yellow solid.
