2-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methylpyridine → Methyl 3-chloro-2'-{4-chloro-3-[(4-methoxybenzyl)oxy]phenyl}-5-methyl-2,3'-bipyridine-6'-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

The Suzuki-Myaura coupling performed between 1 g (1.96 mmol) of methyl 6-[3-[(4-methoxybenzyl)oxy]-4-chlorophenyl]-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)pyridine-2-carboxylate and 526 mg (2.55 mmol) of 2-bromo-3-chloro-5-methylpyridine according to Example 1.6 gives 637 mg of methyl 3-chloro-2′-{4-chloro-3-[(4-methoxybenzyl)oxy]phenyl}-5-methyl-2,3′-bipyridine-6′-carboxylate in the form of an oil.
