Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of the 3-bromo-4-dimethylaminopyridine prepared in Example 214A (1.29 g, 6.39 mmol) vinyltributyltin (2.23 g, 7.02 mmol), bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) chloride (224 mg, 0.32 mmol) in toluene (10 mL) was heated at 100° C. for 12 hours. To the stirring reaction mixture at room temperature was added ether (30 mL), water (0.2 mL) and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (0.5 mL). The resulting mixture was filtered through silica gel (15 g), rinsed with ethyl acetate, and concentrated in vacua. The residue was purified by column chromatography (50% ethyl acetate-hexanes, then ethyl acetate) to give 3-vinyl-4-dimethylaminopyridine (1.11 g, contaminated with about 10 mol % of tributyltin. derivatives). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.39 (s, 1H), 8.26 (d, 1H), 6.77 (dd, 1H), 6.70 (d, 1H), 5.65 (dd, 1H), 5.29 (dd, 1H), 2.87 (s, 6H).
