Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-iodopyridin-2-amine (0.46 g, 2.09 mmole), 4-(triethylsilyl)but-3-in-1-ol (0.58 g, 3.14 mmole), 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene-palladium(II)dichloride dichloromethane (0.083 g, 0.105 mmole), lithium chloride (0.086 g, 2.09 mmole) and sodium carbonate (0.44 g, 4.18 mmole) in DMF (21 ml) was stirred under nitrogen for 15 hours at 100° C. The reaction mixture was cooled to RT, EtOAc/ether (1:1) was added and the mixture was poured into H2O. The two-phase suspension was filtered through filter earth. After separating the phases the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2×). The organic phases were combined and washed with H2O and with saturated NaCl solution and dried over MgSO4. After filtering off the drying agent the solvents were removed on a rotary evaporator. Column chromatography of the residue (n-hexane/EtOAc=2:1, then n-hexane/EtOAc=1:1) yielded 2-(2-(triethylsilyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3-yl)ethanol (0.46 g, 80%).
