Sodium Carbonate → tert-butyl({5-[4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1-(pyridin-3-ylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl}methyl)methylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl{[5-bromo-1-(pyridin-3-ylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl]methyl}methylcarbamate (430 mg), 2-[4-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (348 mg), sodium carbonate (254 mg) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (174 mg) were suspended in dimethoxyethane (10 mL) and water (4 mL), and the mixture was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere at 105° C. for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature, water was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate=4:1→2:1) to give the title compound as a pale-yellow oil (yield 550 mg, quantitative yield).
