Reaction Steps

To a microwave reactor vial was added 6-chloro-5-iodo-2-(methylsulfonyl)-1H-benzimidazole 16-5 (2 g, 5.6 mmol), PdCl2(dppf) (205 mg, 8.4 mmol), K2CO3 (2.32 g 17 mmol), 1-methyl-5-indoleboronic acid (1.47 g, 8.4 mmol) in 20 mL of toluene and 6 mL H2O. The reaction was run in a microwave reactor for 7 min at 130° C. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (150 mL) and washed three times with 150 mL portions of saturated aqueous ammonium chloride. The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Then CH2Cl2 was added and the desired product precipitated out of the solution. The resulting solid was collected by vacuum filtration and washed with copious amounts of CH2Cl2 to yield the title compound 16-6 as a white solid.
