Participants

Reaction Steps

According to Scheme 30 Step 1: The title compound was prepared from 5-bromo-2-methoxy-4-methylpyridine (1 eq, 15.8 mmol, 3.20 g) and 4-methoxyphenylboronic acid (1.5 eq, 23.8 mmol, 3.61 g) according to the procedure described for Example 1 Step 3. Reaction conditions: 21 hours at 80° C. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography over silica gel (AIT Flashsmart prepacked column 130 g SiO2) using AcOEt/MeOH (95/5) as the eluent to afford 2-methoxy-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-methylpyridine (12.8 mmol, 2.94 g, 81%) as a light yellow solid.
