Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-bromo-5-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carbaldehyde (0.33 g, 0.93 mmol), cyclopropyl boronic acid (0.12 g, 1.39 mmol), tricyclohexyl phosphine (0.026 g, 0.09 mmol), palladium(II) acetate (0.01 g, 0.046 mmol) and potassium phosphate tribasic (0.63 g, 2.97 mmol) in 4 mL of toluene and 0.5 mL of water was flushed with Argon for 5 min then heated at 100° C. for 18 h. The cooled mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite, washed with EtOAc, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with 10% EtOAc/hexanes to afford 0.24 g (81%) of 2-cyclopropyl-5-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carbaldehyde as a yellow powder.
