Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 8-bromo-5-methyl-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine (200 mg, 0.724 mmol) in toluene (4 mL), were added (S)-2-(1-hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (537 mg, 2.173 mmol), di-tert-butyl(2′,4′,6′-triisopropyl-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl)phosphine (185 mg, 0.435 mmol), cesium carbonate (354 mg, 1.086 mmol) and palladium (II) acetate (48.8 mg, 0.217 mmol). Nitrogen was bubbled through the reaction mixture for 10 min and the mixture was heated at 80° C. 12 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered through celite and residue rinsed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and purified via prep TLC (60% ethyl acetate in pet ether) to afford 2-((2S)-4-methyl-1-(5-methyl-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridin-8-yloxy)pentan-2-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (205 mg, 0.463 mmol, 64% yield). LCMS (ESI) m/e 443.2 [(M+H)+, calcd for C27H27N2O4 443.2]; LC/MS retention time (Method C): tR=2.27 min.
