Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-bromo-4-tert-butyl-5-nitro-phenylamine (27.3 g, 100 mmol) in toluene (200 mL) and water (100 mL) was added Et3N (27.9 mL, 200 mmol), Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (2.11 g, 3.00 mmol), CuI (950 mg, 0.500 mmol) and trimethylsilyl acetylene (21.2 mL, 150 mmol) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was heated at 70° C. in a sealed pressure flask for 2.5 h., cooled down to room temperature and filtered through a short plug of Celite. The filter cake was washed with EtOAc. The combined filtrate was washed with 5% NH4OH solution and water, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (0-10% ethyl acetate/petroleum ether) to provide 4-tert-butyl-5-nitro-2-trimethylsilanylethynyl-phenylamine as a brown viscous liquid (25 g, 81%).
