Potassium Fluoride → HCID 23502857, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 1.00 g (1.73 mmol) N-(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-6-iodo-N-methyl-4-o-tolyl-nicotinamide (Example 4) and 0.61 ml (1.8 mmol) 1-ethoxyvinyltri-n-butyltin in 5 ml toluene was deoxygenated by three freeze-thaw cycles. After addition of 61 mg (0.087 mmol) bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) chloride the reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 16 h. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, treated with 500 mg (2.25 mmol) potassium fluoride on aluminum oxide (5.5 mmol fluoride/g) and stirred for 15 min. After filtration and washing with toluene the filtrate was concentrated. Column chromatography afforded 592 mg (66%) of the title compound as a light yellow foam.
