Potassium Phosphate, Tribasic → 1,1-dimethylethyl 7-{4-[(methyloxy)carbonyl]phenyl}-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxazepine-4(5H)-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of {4-[(methyloxy)carbonyl]phenyl}boronic acid (0.36 g, 2.0 mmol), 1,1-dimethylethyl 7-bromo-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxazepine-4(5H)-carboxylate (0.66 g, 2.0 mmol), [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II) (70.0 mg, 0.10 mmol), and tripotassium phosphate (1.30 g, 12.0 mmol) in dioxane (20 mL) was refluxed for 3 h, and then cooled to room temperature. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate (50 mL) and water (80 mL), the organic layer was washed with brine (40 mL), dried over sodium sulfate then filtered and concentrated. Column chromatography on silica (ethyl acetate:hexanes 1:4) gave 1,1-dimethylethyl 7-{4-[(methyloxy)carbonyl]phenyl}-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxazepine-4(5H)-carboxylate (0.47 g, 60% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHZ, DMSO-D6): 8.11 (m, 2H), 7.63-7.52 (m, 2H), 7.43 (m, 2H), 7.10 (t, 1H), 4.57-4.43 (br, 2H), 4.08 (m, 2H), 3.82 (m, 2H), 1.40 (s, 9H); MS (EI) for C22H25NO5: 469 (MH+).
