Participants

Reaction Steps

To N-(4-bromo-2-methyl-phenyl)-4-oxo-1H-quinoline-3-carboxamide (50 mg, 0.14 mmol), cyclohexen-1-ylboronic acid (35 mg, 0.28), and Pd(dppf)Cl2-DCM (11 mg, 0.01 mmol) was added Na2CO3 (980 μL, of 2 M, 1.96 mmol) and acetonitrile (2 mL). The reaction mixture was heated under microwave irradiation for 10 min at 150° C. under a N2 atmosphere. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with 50% saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (2×20 mL), water, and brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified via silica gel column chromatography (30-100% ethyl acetate/hexane) to obtain N-(4-cyclohexen-1-yl-2-methyl-phenyl)-4-oxo-1H-quinoline-3-carboxamide as a white solid (35 mg, 70%). N-(4-cyclohexen-1-yl-2-methyl-phenyl)-4-oxo-1H-quinoline-3-carboxamide (35 mg, 0.10 mmol) was stirred vigorously with 10% Pd/C (wet) (30 mg, 0.01 mmol) under an atmosphere of H2 for 30 min at 50° C. The reaction mixture was filtered, concentrated in vacuo, and purified by HPLC (30-95% CH3CN/5 mM HCl) to yield N-(4-cyclohexyl-2-methylphenyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxamide (20 mg, 57% yield).
