Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxymethyl)-2-chloro-3-fluoropyridine (30 mg, 108 μmol), benzophenone imine (14 μL, 84 μmol), tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (7.7 mg, 8.4 μmol), (S)-(−)-2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphtyl (15.7 mg, 25.3 μmol) and sodium tert-butoxide (10.4 mg, 108 μmol) in toluene (0.5 mL) was stirred at 60° C. overnight. Ethyl acetate was then added to the reaction solution, and the solution was washed with sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and saturated saline. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to yield the title compound (27 mg, 60%).
