Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Bromopyrazin-2-amine (2.0 g, 11.49 mmol), (4-methylsulfonylphenyl)boronic acid (2.758 g, 13.79 mmol) and K3PO4 (4.878 g, 22.98 mmol) were combined in MeCN (40 mL)/Water (10 mL) and Pd[P(tBu)3]2 (216 mg, 0.4227 mmol) was added. The reaction was heated at 60° C. for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated with water, then Et2O then dried in vacuo to give the sub-title compound as a beige solid which was used without further purification (2.53 g, 88% Yield). 1H NMR (400.0 MHz, DMSO) δ 3.20 (s, 3H), 6.80 (br s, 2H), 7.94 (d, 2H), 8.00 (d, 1H), 8.17 (d, 2H) and 8.64 (d, 1H) ppm.
