Reaction Steps

To a stirred suspension of 8-chloro-5-vinyl-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine (0.2 g, 0.821 mmol), (S)-2-(1-hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (0.609 g, 2.462 mmol), 2-di-tert-butylphosphino-2,4,6-triisopropylbiphenyl (0.209 g, 0.492 mmol), and cesium carbonate (0.401 g, 1.231 mmol) in toluene (25 mL) was added palladium (II) acetate (0.055 g, 0.246 mmol). Nitrogen gas was bubbled through the mixture for 5 min, and then the reaction mixture was heated to 80° C. for 14 h. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate (25 mL) and filtered through celite. The filtrate was washed with water (1×20 mL) and brine (1×20 mL), dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified via silica gel column chromatography (60% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to afford 2-((2S)-4-methyl-1-(5-vinyl-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridin-8-yloxy)pentan-2-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (0.3 g, 0.660 mmol, 40% yield for three steps). LCMS (ESI) m/e 455.2 [(M+H)+, calcd for C28H27N2O4 455.2]; LC/MS retention time (Method C): tR=2.16 min.
