Reaction Steps

A mixture of ethyl 2-(2-chloropyridin-4-yl)-2-methylpropanoate (57) (2.80 g, 12.3 mmol), tert-butylcarbamate (4.32 g, 36.9 mmol), Pd2(dba)3 (281 mg, 0.307 mmol), Xantphos (355 mg, 0.615 mmol) and caesium carbonate (6.01 g, 18.5 mmol) in THF (10.0 mL) was purged with nitrogen and then stirred at 65° C. for 72 hr. The mixture was cooled to RT and was diluted with water and extracted with ether. The organic layer was washed with water and brine and then dried (MgSO4), and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2, 120 g, 5-8% EtOAc in isohexane, gradient elution) to give the title compound (58) (1.47 g, 37%): m/z 309 (M+H)+ (ES+)
