4-(1-Piperidylmethyl)phenylboronic Acid → tert-Butyl-{3-(4-piperidin-1-ylmethyl-phenyl)-9H-dipyrido[2,3-b;4',3'-d]pyrrol-6-yl}-carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A degassed mixture of tert-butyl-{3-bromo-9H-dipyrido[2,3-b;4′,3′-d]pyrrol-6-yl}-carbamate (229 mg, 0.631 mmol), 4-piperidin-1-ylmethyl-phenyl boronic acid (207 mg, 0.946 mmol), and [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II) complex with dichloromethane (1:1) (51.5 mg, 6.31 μmol, 10.0 mol %) in 1,4-dioxane (12.4 mL) and 2M aqueous cesium carbonate (1.32 mL) was heated under reflux for 5 h. The mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature, diluted with DCM and water, and filtered to remove the precipitate. The filtrate layers were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with DCM, and the combined organic phase concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was dissolved in 20% methanol in DCM and absorbed onto silica gel for purification by flash chromatography (silica, 11 g column, Biotage, 1-20% methanol in DCM) to afford the title compound as a beige solid (86.9 mg, 30%). 1H NMR (DMSO-D6, 400 MHz): 11.96 (s, 1H), 9.55 (s, 1H), 8.99 (d, J=1.9 Hz, 1H), 8.88 (d, J=2.2 Hz, 1H), 8.57 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 7.80 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.42 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 3.50 (s, 2H), 2.35 (m, 4H), 1.55-1.45 (m, 4H), 1.52 (s, 9H), 1.39 (m, 2H). LCMS (Method D): RT=9.11 min, M+H+=458.
