Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (1.38 g) was added to a suspension of 3-bromopyridin-2-amine (20.6 g), 4-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)phenylboronic acid (39.0 g) and sodium carbonate (25.2 g) in DME (650 mL) and water (130 mL) and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. under nitrogen 6 hr. Volatiles were removed in vacuo, water and EtOAc were added and the organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was crystallized from EtOAc-hexane to give 4-(2-aminopyridin-3-yl)phenol (7.90 g) as yellow crystals. The filtrate of crystallization was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, eluted with EtOAc in hexane) to give 3-(4-{[tert-butyl(dimethyl)silyl]oxy}phenyl)pyridin-2-amine (23.4 g) as a white powder.
