Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 5-(5-bromo-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-2-(2-methylpropyl)benzonitrile (D26) (100 mg), 2-ethyl-3-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)benzaldehyde (D5) (121 mg) and tripotassium phosphate (165 mg) in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) (4 mL) and water (1 mL) under nitrogen was added Pd(Ph3P)4 (35.9 mg). The reaction vessel was sealed and heated under microwave at 120° C. for 10 min. Water was added. The reaction mixture was extracted with EA for 3 times, the combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, the dried solution was concentrated, and purified by column chromatography to afford 5-[5-(2-ethyl-3-formylphenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]-2-(2-methylpropyl)benzonitrile (D27) (63 mg) as a yellow solid. MS (ES): C22H21N3OS requires 375. found 376.2 (M+H+).
