Reaction Steps

3-Bromo-2-fluoropyridine (1.5 g, 8.5 mmol), tert-butyl 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-5,6-dihydropyridine-1(2H)-carboxylate (3.16 g, 10.2 mmol), trans-dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) (0.48 g, 0.68 mmol), sodium carbonate (4.44 g, 41.9 mmol), and 6:1:1 DME-H2O-EtOH (20 mL) were combined in a sealed tube and stirred at 80° C. for 18 h. The cooled reaction was diluted with CH2Cl2 and washed with aqueous saturated NaHCO3 solution; the aqueous layer was back-washed with CH2Cl2 (1×). The combined organic extracts were dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Flash column chromatography (10% to 40% EtOAc/Hexanes) gave tert-butyl 4-(2-fluoropyridin-3-yl)-5,6-dihydropyridine-1(2H)-carboxylate as a golden yellow oil. [M+1]=279.2.
