Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-(4-benzylphenyl)-9-chlorobenzo[h][1,6]naphthyridin-2(1H)-one (100 mg, 0.22 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (0.6 mL) was added 4-hydroxyphenylboronic acid (45 mg, 0.33 mmol) and 1 N Na2CO3 (0.66 mL, 0.66 mmol). The reaction mixture was degassed using Argon gas for 10 min and added Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (15 mg, 0.02 mmol) and di-tert-butyl(2′,4′,6′-triisopropylbiphenyl-2-yl)phosphine (15 mg, 0.04 mmol). The reaction flask was put into the preheated oil-bath at 100° C. The reaction mixture was further stirred at 100° C. a period of 8 hours after which, it was filtered and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography using a 97:3 v/v CH2Cl2: EtOH as solvent to afford title compound (64 mg, 64% yield) as a yellow solid. 1H NMR 600 MHz (CDCl3) δ 9.08 (s, 1H), 8.42 (s, 1H), 8.04 (d, J=2.4 Hz, 1H), 7.95 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1H), 7.61 (dd, J=2.1, 6.6 Hz, 1H), 7.25 (m, 2H), 7.12 (m, 4H), 7.00 (m, 5H), 6.75 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 6.48 (dd, J=2.4, 6.2 Hz, 1H), 3.88 (s, 2H), MS m/z: 455.27 (M+1).
