Reaction Steps

To a teflon-lined septum sealed Schlenk tube, a mixture of Compound 1e (4.0 g; 9.20 mmol), 5-(methylthio)pyridin-3-yl boronic acid (Compound 1f) (2.32 g; 13.7 mmol), K2CO3 (2.50 g; 18.1 mmol) and [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-ferrocene]dichloro-palladium(II) (0.45 g, 0.55 mmol) in a mixture of ethanol (18 mL) and H2O (4.5 mL) was irradiated in a microwave reactor at 130° C. for 30 min. The resultant mixture was diluted with EtOAc, washed with saturated NH4Cl(aq) and H2O. The organic phase was washed with H2O, and then dried over Na2SO4. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the crude material. The crude material was purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2), eluting with a heptane-EtOAc gradient to afford Compound 1g (3.45 g; 72% yield) as pale-yellow solid. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 9.00 (s, 1H), 8.40 (d, 1H), 8.21 (s, 1H), 7.99 (br. s, 1H), 7.12-7.18 (m, 2H), 6.93-6.96 (m, 2H), 5.77 (br. s, 0.6H), 4.90 (br. s, 0.4H), 4.22-4.32 (m, 1H), 3.86 (s, 3H), 3.18-3.56 (m, 4H), 2.47 (s, 3H), 1.80-2.15 (m, 4H), 1.46-1.52 (m, 9H); MS: m/z 524.2 (M+H)+.
