Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Under an argon atmosphere 50 mL 2 M Na2CO3 solution and 1.2 g (1.0 mmol) tetrakis-triphenylphosphane-palladium are added to a solution of 8.7 g (50.0 mmol) 5-bromo-pyrazin-2-ylamine and 8.0 g (50.0 mmol) 4-chlorophenyl-boric acid in 150 mL 1,4-dioxane and 50 mL MeOH and the reaction mixture is heated to 110° C. for 2.5 h. The mixture is evaporated down i.vac., the residue is combined with water, extracted exhaustively with EtOAc and the organic phase is dried over Na2SO4. After the desiccant and solvent have been eliminated the residue is purified by chromatography (silica gel, gradient: DCM to DCM/MeOH 20:1).
