Reaction Steps

To a mixture of tert-butyl 3-bromo-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-ylcarbamate (1.90 g, 6.78 mmol), 4-(methylsulfonyl)phenylboronic acid (2.07 g, 10.3 mmol), cesium fluoride (2.09 g, 13.8 mmol), and the palladium catalyst (0.271 g, 0.383 mmol) was added dioxane (20 mL) and water (2 mL). The reaction mixture was degassed by bubbling nitrogen through the solution for 5 min and the reaction mixture was heated to 80° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc, and the organic phase was washed with saturated NH4Cl (1×), brine (1×), dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. Purification by flash column chromatography on silica gel (eluted with 10% to 50% EtOAc in hexanes) gave tert-butyl 3-(4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-ylcarbamate.
