Cesium carbonate → tert-butyl 3-methoxy-1-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-ylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-Bromo-3-methoxy-1-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine (0.109 g, 0.313 mmol), tert-butyl carbamate (0.110 g, 0.939 mmol), Cs2CO3 (0.153 g, 0.470 mmol), Pd2 dba3*CHCl3 (0.0324 g, 0.0313 mmol) and 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9 dimethylxanthene (0.0362 g, 0.0626 mmol) were taken up in THF, degassed with argon for 15 minutes, and heated to reflux overnight. The solution was partitioned between water and EtOAc. The organic portion was washed with water (3×), brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to an oil which was purified by column chromatography (4:1 hexane/EtOAc) to give tert-butyl 3-methoxy-1-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-ylcarbamate (0.0298 g, 24.8%) as an oil.
