Reaction Steps

Add benzophenone imine (215 mg, 1.19 mmol), cesium carbonate (640 mg, 1.96 mmol), (±)-2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthalene (BINAP, 98 mg, 0.16 mmol), tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium [Pd2(dba)3, 90 mg, 0.098 mmol] to the solution of 3-bromo-5-(1,1-difluoroethyl)pyridine (200 mg, 0.9 mmol) in dioxane (10 mL), stir the resulting mixture under nitrogen atmosphere at 100° C. for 16 hrs. Cool the reaction mixture to room temperature, filter off the solid, concentrate the filtrate under reduced pressure, purify by flash chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc:PE=2:1) to yield the title compound (296 mg, 92%). MS: (M+1): 323.
