Reaction Steps

4-((6-Bromo-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-3-yl)methoxy)-7-methoxyquinoline (0.050 g, 0.13 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (1 mL) then added zinc cyanide (0.023 g, 0.19 mmol), 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (0.0072 g, 0.013 mmol) and tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (0.0059 g, 0.0065 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated at 100° C. for 8 hours. Additional zinc cyanide (0.012 g, 0.095 mmol), 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (0.004 g, 0.0065 mmol) and tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0) (0.003 g, 0.0032 mmol) were added and heating was continued at 100° C. for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The sample was purified by preparative TLC eluting with 10% 7N ammonia in methanol/dichloromethane to afford 3-((7-methoxyquinolin-4-yloxy)methyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine-6-carbonitrile (23 mg, 53% yield) as a white solid. MS (ESI pos. ion) m/z: 332.1 (MH+).
