Potassium Carbonate → (S)-tert-Butyl 1-amino-3-(4'-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)-1-oxopropan-2-ylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

(S)-tert-Butyl 1-amino-3-(4-iodophenyl)-1-oxopropan-2-ylcarbamate (Example 3, step (i), 3.17 g) and 4-cyanophenylboronic acid (1.19 g) in dioxane (5 mL) were treated with 1,1 bis(di-tert-butylphosphino)ferrocene palladium dichloride (0.08 g) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 min under nitrogen. An aqueous solution of potassium carbonate (2M, 8.12 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for 18 h at 75° C. The reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, dried and evaporated to afford the sub-titled compound (3.13 g).
