Reaction Steps

To a solution of hexahydro-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (7.0317 g, 33.2 mmol) in 180 mL toluene was added 2,5-dibromopyridine (22.03 g, 92.9 mmol), tris(dibenzylidenacetone)dipalladium (0) (Pd2(dba)3, Strem, 0.6087 g, 0.664 mmol), 2,2′-bis(diphenyphosphino)-1,1′binaphthyl (BINAP, Aldrich, 1.0506 g, 1.68 mmol), and NaOtBu (Aldrich, 4.778 g, 49.7 mmol. The reaction mixture was heated to 90° C. under dry N2 for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and was filtered through diatomaceous earth and the residue was washed with 250 mL ethyl acetate. The combined organic extracts were concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified via column chromatography (SiO2, gradient 5% to 60% EtOAc-hexanes) to give 7.71 g (20.6 mmol, 62% yield). H NMR (300 MHz) δ 1.45 (s, 9H) 2.94-3.14 (m, 2H) 3.17-3.38 (m, 4H) 3.51-3.76 (m, 4H) 6.46 (d, J=9 Hz, 1H) 7.59 (dd, J=9, 3 Hz, 1H) 8.05 ppm (s, 1H)
