Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-chloro-5-iodo-6-methyl-7-{[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (C6) (300 mg, 0.71 mmol) and (3-cyanophenyl)boronic acid (104 mg, 0.708 mmol) in a mixture of 1,2-dimethoxyethane and water (5:1, 10 mL) was added potassium carbonate (193 mg, 1.40 mmol) and [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II) (17 mg, 23 μmol). The reaction mixture was degassed and purged with nitrogen; this procedure was carried out a total of three times. After heating at reflux for 18 hours, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (50 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Purification via silica gel chromatography (Gradient: 0% to 20% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether) afforded the product as a yellow oil. Yield: 140 mg, 0.351 mmol, 50%. LCMS m/z 399.2 [M+H+].
