Reaction Steps

In a round-bottomed flask, 6-fluoro-1-tributylstannyl-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine (577 mg, 0.81 mmol) and 2-bromo-5-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carbaldehyde (210 mg, 0.59 mmol) were dissolved in DMF (5 ml). The flask was evacuated and backfilled with argon then tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0) (33 mg, 0.029 mmol) and copper (I) iodide (22 mg, 0.12 mmol) were added. The reaction mixture was stirred at 80° C. in an oil bath for 4 h then cooled to room temperature. Water was added and the resulting suspension was filtered. The filter cake was washed with water and petroleum ether then dried under high vacuum to afford 256 mg (95%) of 2-(6-fluoro-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridin-1-yl)-5-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-5H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyrazine-7-carbaldehyde as a yellow powder.
