Reaction Steps

N-Cyclopropyl-5-fluoro-4-methyl-3-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-[1,3,2]dioxaborolan-2-yl)-benzamide (3.2 g), methyl 6-chloronicotinate (1.73 g), tetralcis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (210 mg) and aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate (1M, 30 ml) were mixed in propan-2-ol (100 ml) and heated at 90° C. for 18 hours. The reaction was allowed to cool and the propan-2-ol removed under vacuum. The residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate and aqueous sodiumhydrogen carbonate (1M). The aqueous phase was acidified with hydrochloric acid (2N) and extracted with ethyl acetate (x2). The organic extracts were washed with brine, dried (magnesium sulphate) and reduced to dryness under vacuum. The resulting foam was triturated with ether to give 6-{5-[(cyclopropylamino)carbonyl]-3-fluoro-2-methylphenyl}nicotinic acid as a solid.
