Reaction Steps

To the title compound of Example 1 Step B (0.20 g, 0.56 mmol), 2-trifluoromethylphenylboronic acid (0.16 g, 0.84 mmol), K3PO4 (0.357 g, 1.68 mmol) Pd(dba)2 (0.013 g, 0.022 mmol) and Q-Phos (0.008 g, 0.011 mmol) was added PhCH3. After 48 h at rt the reaction was diluted with EtOAc and filtered through a small silica pad. Silica gel chromatography (0-30% EtOAc in hexanes) gave 0.24 g (99% yield) of the title compound. MS (ESI): mass calcd. for C22H22F3NO4, 421.15; m/z found, 336.1 [M-56]+, 444.1 [M+Na]+. 1H NMR (CDCl3): 10.53 (d, J=0.7 Hz, 1H), 7.91 (d, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 7.78 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 7.61 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 1H), 7.54 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 7.33 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 7.05 (d, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 6.59 (s, 1H), 4.99 (tt, J=6.4, 4.0 Hz, 1H), 4.37-4.29 (m, 2H), 4.11-4.08 (m, 2H), 1.45 (s, 9H).
