1,1'-Biphenyl-4-yl-boronic acid → Methyl 4-[(4-phenylphenyl)amino]-5-methylthiothiophene-2-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Using a procedure similar to Example 208, step (a), 74.4 mg (0.36 mmol) of methyl 4-amino-5-methylthiothiophene-2-carboxylate was allowed to react with 142.5 mg (2 equiv, 0.72 mmol) of 4-phenylphenyl boronic acid to give 24.5 mg (19.1%) of methyl 4-[(4-phenylphenyl)amino]-5-methylthiothiophene-2-carboxylate. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ2.45 (s, 3H), 3.92 (s, 3H), 6.38 (bs, 1H), 7.08-7.14 (m, 2H), 7.33 (m, 1H), 7.43-7.46 (m, 2H), 7.54-7.60 (m, 4H), 7.82 (s, 1H).
