Reaction Steps

To a suspension of methyl 2-(2-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-3-yl)-4-{[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]oxy}-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate (100 mg, 0.237 mmol) obtained in Example 13-B (ii), 2,4-difluorophenylboronic acid (56.2 mg, 0.356 mmol), and cesium carbonate (154 mg, 0.474 mmol) in DME (5 mL) and water (1 mL) under argon atmosphere was added [1,1′-Bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene] palladium(II) dichloride complex with dichloromethane (1:1) (19.4 mg, 0.0237 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 80° C. To the mixture were added EtOAc (20 mL) and saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate (15 mL) and then organic layer was separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (5 mL) and the combined organic layer was washed with brine (5 mL). The organic layer was separated and then filtered through silica gel pad (3 g). After the concentration of the filtrate, the residue was washed with EtOAc (2 mL) to obtain title compound (79 mg, 87%) as a colorless solid.
