Reaction Steps

A re-sealable vial containing (S)- or (R)-3-iodo-N-(1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)ethyl)pyridin-2-amine (0.333 g, 1.002 mmol), copper(I) iodide (0.0084 g, 0.044 mmol), biphenyl-2-ol (0.018 g, 0.106 mmol), and cesium carbonate (0.672 g, 2.062 mmol) was diluted with THF (3.5 mL). To the orange mixture was added ethyl 3-hydroxybut-2-enoate (0.25 mL, 1.977 mmol). The resultant blue-green contents were evacuated and purged with N2 (g) (3×). The vial was subsequently sealed and heated to 100° C. After 24 h, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered over a pad of Celite. The filter pad was washed with EtOAc (3×) and the filtrate was concentrated to give a thick brown oil. The resultant oil was purified on a Biotage system (50 g, gradient elution 2% EtOAc: 98% Hexanes to 15% EtOAc: 85% Hexanes, then 15% EtOAc: 85% Hexanes). The product (S)- or (R)-ethyl 2-methyl-1-(1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)ethyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxylate (0.257 g, 0.812 mmol, 81.0% yield) was isolated as a white foam. LRMS (M+H+) m/z: calcd 317.2. found 317.
