Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-bromo-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (0.5 g, 2 mmol) in DMF (5 mL) was purged with argon and 2-(tributylstannyl)thiazole (1.12 g/0.9 mL, 3 mmol) and 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene-palladium(II)dichloride (0.14 g, 0.2 mmol) added. The reaction mixture was purged with argon for 5 min and retained in microwave for 30 min at 100° C. The reaction mixture was diluted with ice cold water (10 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL). The organic solvent was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain crude product. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (100-200 mesh; 8% ethyl acetate in hexane) to give 4-(thiazol-2-yl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile (0.42 g, 84% yield) as pale yellow solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 8.42-8.39 (m, 2H), 8.27 (d, 1H), 8.08 (d, 1H), 8.03 (d, 1H). LC-MS m/z calculated for [M+H]+255.01. found 255.0.
