Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl 3-bromoisonicotinate (1.0 eq, 1.76 g, 7.65 mmol), 2-aminophenylboronic acid hydrochloride (1.0 eq, 1.33 g, 7.67 mmol) and cesium carbonate (2.0 eq, 4.99 g, 15.31 mmol) were suspended in dioxane (15 ml). The mixture was degassed by bubbling nitrogen for 10 minutes. PdCl2(dppf) (0.05 eq, 280 mg, 0.383 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at reflux for 2 hours. The resulting solid was filtered, washed with methanol, water and methanol and dried. Benzo[c][2,6]naphthyridin-5(6H)-one was isolated as an off-white solid (823 mg, 55% yield). LCMS (ES): 95% pure, m/z 197 [M+1]+.
