Tetrahydrofuran → tert-Butyl {4-[6-(5-benzylhexahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrol-2-yl)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-7,8-dimethylimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazin-3-yl]pyrid-2-yl}carbamate

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3.60 g (6.34 mmol) of 6-(5-benzylhexahydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrol-2-yl)-2-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-iodo-7,8-dimethylimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine in 15 mL of a mixture of tetrahydrofuran and water (9:1) are added 6.2 g (19 mmol) of cesium carbonate and 2.4 g (7.6 mmol) of tert-butyl [4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)pyrid-2-yl]carbamate. After sparging with a stream of argon for a few moments, 0.47 mg (0.57 mmol) of a complex of [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II) and dichloromethane (PdCl2(dppf).CH2Cl2) is added and the reaction mixture is refluxed under argon for 5 hours. The mixture is then poured into 250 mL of water and the product is extracted with ethyl acetate, the organic phase is dried over sodium sulfate and filtered, and the solvent is evaporated off to give a brown solid. The product is purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with a mixture of dichloromethane, methanol and aqueous ammonia (95:5:05) to give 2.91 g of a beige-colored solid.
