Cesium carbonate → 3-(4-(4,4,5,5-Tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)butanenitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole (50 mg, 0.2 mmol), 3-bromobutanenitrile (46 mg, 0.31 mmol, TCI America, Cat. No. B 1452), and cesium carbonate (250 mg, 0.77 mmol) in acetonitrile (1 mL) was stirred at 90° C. for 3 hours. After cooling it was quenched with water, extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water twice, brine once; dried over Na2SO4. After filtration the filtrate was concentrated to yield 60 mg product. It was directly used in the next step reaction without further purification.
