Reaction Steps

9-Benzyloxy-6-[(2-bromophenyl)methyl]-2-isopropyl-3,4-dihydropyrazino[1,2-c]pyrimidine-1,8-dione (169) (150 mg, 0.311 mmol) and 3,4-difluorphenylboronic acid (56.5 mg, 0.358 mmol) were suspended in a mixture of toluene/ethanol (10 ml/1 ml), treated at room temperature under argon with tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (14.4 mg, 12.4 μmol) and 2M sodium carbonate solution (342 μl, 684 μmol) and the reaction mixture was then heated at 90° C. for 7 h. The reaction was quenched with water and the mixture was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were combined, washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography over 25 g silica gel with methanol/dichloromethane (gradient: 0 to 10% methanol). All fractions containing product were combined and concentrated to afford 9-benzyloxy-6-[[2-(3,4-difluorophenyl)phenyl]methyl]-2-isopropyl-3,4-dihydropyrazino[1,2-c]pyrimidine-1,8-dione (160 mg) as a white solid.
