Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5,6-difluoro-3-iodo-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-indole (Intermediate 28; 300 mg; 0.716 mmol), tert-butyl 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxylate (273.6 mg; 0.93 mmol), K3PO4 (455 mg; 2.15 mmol) in dioxane (10 mL) and water (1 mL) was added Pd(dppf)Cl2 (59 mg; 0.072 mmol) under argon. The reaction mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 12 hours. The mixture was filtered through Celite and washed with EtOAc (50 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (100 mL), dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, concentrated, and purified by a silica gel chromatography (petroleum ether/EtOAc=1/1) to afford 203 mg (62%) of the title compound as a yellow solid.
