Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

10.6 g (37 mmol) of methyl 2-(trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy)nicotinate and 6.2 g (41 mmol) of 3,4-ethylenedioxybenzylamine were dissolved in toluene (100 mL), and 17.0 g (52 mmol) of cesium carbonate, 1.0 g (1.1 mmol) of tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0), and 1.3 g (5.2 mmol) of 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene were added thereto. The resulting mixture was heated and stirred for 2 hours at 80° C. The solvent was distilled off from the reaction mixture, water and ethyl acetate were added to the residue, and the resulting mixture was filtered. The filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic phase was washed with an aqueous solution of citric acid and water in this order, and then was dried and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (ethyl acetate:n-hexane=1:9 to 1:2), and thus 9.86 g of the title compound was obtained as an orange-colored viscous product (yield: 93%).
