Cesium carbonate → 3-Cyclopropylaniline

Participants

Reaction Steps

Stir the mixture of 3-bromoaniline (400 mg, 2.35 mmol), cyclopropylboronic acid (240 mg, 2.79 mmol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (140 mg, 0.12 mmol), cesium carbonate (1.5 g, 4.60 mmol) in dioxane (5 mL) and water (0.3 mL) under nitrogen atmosphere for 17 hrs at 100° C. Cool the reaction to room temperature, filter and concentrate the filtrate under reduced pressure. Purify by flash chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc:PE=3:7) to afford the title compound (120 mg, 38.8%). MS: (M+1): 134.0.
