Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-bromo-5-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carbaldehyde (1.33 g, 3.73 mmol) and 1-ethyl-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole (995 mg, 4.48 mmol) in 1,2-DME (20 mL) were added Pd(Ph3P)4 (0.22 g, 0.19 mmol) and 2.0 M aqueous K2CO3 (5.6 ml, 11.2 mmol). The reaction mixture was degassed by bubbling N2 for 15 min then heated at 100° C. overnight. The resultant maroon reaction mixture was cooled and diluted with H2O then extracted with EtOAc (2×). The combined organics were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The crude residue was purified by SiO2 chromatography (30% to 80% EtOAc/hexanes) to afford 1.12 g (81%) of 2-(1-ethyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-5-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carbaldehyde as a light orange-brown solid.
