Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 19 (1.77 g, 0.0057 mol), 3-diethylpyridyl borane (1.0 g, 0.0068 mol) in 80 mL of DME, was added PdCl2(Ph3P)2 (320 mg, 0.455 mmol) and aqueous 2M sodium carbonate (8.5 mL, 0.017 mol) under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 3 h. Cooled to rt and diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with brine. The organic layer was dried and concentrated to an oil that was subjected to flash chromatography (30% EtOAc-70% hexanes) to give 1 g (57%) of the desired material 20. 1H NMR CDCl3 8.9 (s, 1H), 8.5 (d, 1H), 8.4 (d, 1H), 8.0 (d, 1H), 7.9 (d, 1H), 7.5 (d, 1H), 7.2 (d, 1H), 6.5 (d, 1H), 0.85 (s, 9H), 0.55 (s, 6H).
