Reaction Steps

A mixture of 102 mg (0.340 mmol) 1-(3-bromo-4-nitro-phenyl)-4-methyl-piperazine (as prepared in Example 9, step (a)), 59.7 mg (0.474 mmol) cyclohexen-1-ylboronic acid, 43.8 mg (0.0379 mmol) of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0) under Ar was treated with 206 μL (0.412 mmol) of 2.0 M degassed aq Na2CO3, 0.6 mL degassed anh toluene and 0.2 mL degassed anh EtOH and the mixture was heated at 100° C. for 21 h. After cooling to RT, the mixture was poured into EtOAc (10 mL), washed with brine (10 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography on a 5-g silica SPE column with 1-3% EtOH in dichloromethane afforded 126 mg of the title compound (74% purity by RP-HPLC (C18 column) as a mixture with triphenylphosphine) as a yellow oil that was used in the following reaction without further purification. Mass spectrum (ESI, m/z): Calcd. for C17H23N3O3, 302.2 (M+H), found 302.2.
