Reaction Steps

A mixture of (3-(methoxycarbonyl)phenyl)boronic acid (500 mg, 2.78 mmol), 2-bromopyridine (399 mg, 2.53 mmol), K2CO3 (1.0 g, 7.6 mmol) and Pd(dppf)Cl2 (20 mg) in a mixture solution of dioxane (10 mL) and H2O (2.5 mL) was stirred at 120° C. for 30 min under microwave heating. The catalyst was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography to give the desired product (530 mg, Yield: 90%) and this was used directly in the next step. LCMS (m/z): 214.1.
