Potassium Carbonate → HCID 68650610, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of methyl 9-bromo-1-propyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1-benzoazocine-6-carboxylate (2.1 g) and 4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl boric acid (1.84 g), and potassium carbonate (2.14 g) in toluene (25 ml), ethanol (2.5 ml) and water (2.5 ml) was stirred under argon atmosphere for 1 hour and then tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (343 mg) was added. The mixture was refluxed for 5 hours. After returning to room temperature, water was added and the reaction mixture was and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and dried with magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane ethyl acetate=19:1→hexane:ethyl acetate=9:1) to give methyl 9-(4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl)-1-propyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1-benzoazonin-6-carboxylate (2.18 g) as a yellow oily material.
