Participants

Reaction Steps

To a round bottomed flask was added (1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)(4-(3-chloropyrazin-2-yloxy)phenyl)methanone (0.5018 g, 1.431 mmol), 2-(4,4-difluorocyclohex-1-enyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (0.698 g, 2.86 mmol), trans-dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (II) (0.080 g, 0.114 mmol), and sodium carbonate (0.455 g, 4.29 mmol) in DME (3.58 mL) and water (1.192 mL) at 80° C. to stir overnight. Upon completion, solvent was removed. The crude product was purified by reverse-phase preparative HPLC using a Phenomenex Synergi column, 4 micron, MAX-RP, 80 Å, 150×30 MM, 0.1% TFA in CH3CN/H2O, gradient 10% to 100% over 15 min to provide (1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)(4-(3-(4,4-difluorocyclohex-1-enyl)pyrazin-2-yloxy)phenyl)methanone. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 433.0 (M+1). IC50 (uM) +++++.
