Procedure

A mixture of methyl 4-(chroman-6-yl)-6-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-5-carboxylate (0.943 g, 2.93 mmol) in N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) (6.0 mL) was treated with cesium carbonate (1.906 g, 5.85 mmol) and then 4-(bromomethyl)-1,2-difluorobenzene (0.561 mL, 4.39 mmol) and the mixture was heated to 80° C. for 75 minutes. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate and then washed with water and brine. The water that was used for washing was back extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified on silica gel (0-70% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to afford a pale yellow residue: 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 7.25-7.17 (m, 2 H), 7.14-6.99 (m, 3 H), 6.96 (ddd, J=2.0, 4.1, 6.2 Hz, 1 H), 6.88 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1 H), 6.44 (d, J=3.7 Hz, 1 H), 5.45 (s, 2 H), 4.30-4.20 (m, 2 H), 3.69 (s, 3 H), 2.84 (t, J=6.4 Hz, 2 H), 2.68 (s, 3 H), 2.14-1.96 (m, 2 H); LC/MS (m/z) ES+=449 (M+1).
