Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-3-[2-(4-iodo-phenyl)-pent-4-enyl]-imidazolidin-2-one (0.128 g, 0.255 mmol), 3-cyanophenyl boronic acid (0.113 g, 0.766 mmol, 3 eq), tris(dibenzylidene-acetone)-dipalladium(O) (0.025g, 0.0255 mmol, 10 mol %), triphenylarsine (0.031 g, 0.1 mmol, 40 mol %) and cesium fluoride (0.075 g, 0.51 mmol, 2 eq) in DME (13 mL) and ethanol (3 mL) was microwaved at 50W for 7 h and then at 100W for 1 h. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc (50 mL), filtered through a pad of celite 545® and the filtrate washed with saturated aqueous Na2CO3 solution (25 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted twice with EtOAc (50 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated aqueous Na2CO3 solution (25 mL) and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (25 mL). The organic layer was separated, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give a dark oil. Purification by flash column chromatography eluting 15–20% EtOAc/hexanes gave 4′-{1-[3-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-2-oxo-imidazolidin-1-ylmethyl]-but-3-enyl}-biphenyl-3-carbonitrile (0.059 g, 0.125 mmol, 49%) as a dark foam. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.98 (m, 1H), 7.92 (m, 1H), 7.74 (m, 1H), 7.64 (m, 3H), 7.58 (d, 2H), 7.45 (d, 2H), 7.11 (dd, 1H), 5.80 (m, 1H), 5.12 (m, 2H), 3.75 (m, 3H), 3.55 (m, 1H), 4.42 (m, 1H), 3.26 (m, 2H), 2.58 (dd, 2H).
