Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 8-benzyl-3-chloro-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrazino[2,3-f][1,4]oxazepine (493 mg), cyclopropylboronic acid (280 mg), palladium acetate (20 mg), tricyclopropylphosphine (51 mg) and potassium tert-butoxide (663 mg) in toluene (8 mL) was stirred under an argon atmosphere with heating at 100° C. for 2 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent gradient: 5→25% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give the title compound (79.9 mg, 16%) as a colorless oil.
