Reaction Steps

A sealable tube was charged with S-phos (0.22 g, 0.53 mmol), palladium acetate (0.060 g, 0.27 mmol), potassium phosphate (8.5 g, 40 mmol) and 5-bromo-2-methoxypyridine (1.8 mL, 13 mmol) under argon. 9-Benzyl-9-bora-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane 0.5M in THF (53 mL, 27 mmol) was added, the vessel was sealed and heated to 60° C. overnight. The mixture was diluted with diethyl ether and was filtered through a pad of celite. Evaporation of the filtrate and purification by flash chromatography (0-40% EtOAc/hexanes) gave 5-benzyl-2-methoxypyridine. MS (ESI) m/z: Calculated: 199.1; Observed: 200.1 (M++1).
