Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-bromo-3-(1H-indol-5-yl)-1-tosyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (Intermediate B) (92 mg, 0.20 mmol) in CH3CN (2 mL) in a Personal Chemistry microwave reaction vial was added 1-(2-(2-methoxy-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenoxy)ethyl)piperazine (Intermediate AM) (72 mg, 0.20 mmol), bis(triphenylphosphine)-palladium(II)dichloride (20 mg, 0.028 mmol), and 1 M Na2CO3 (2 mL). The resulting mixture was de-gassed with Ar for 10 min, after which it was heated at 150° C. for 25 min in a Personal Chemistry Optimizer. The organic layer was separated, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to give Intermediate AN. The residue was dissolved in MeOH (3 mL) and acetone (2 mL), and 2 M NaOH (1.5 mL) was added. The resulting mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 2 h, after which it was partitioned between EtOAc and 1 M NaOH. The organic layer was separated, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and stripped to give a residue that was subjected to preparatory HPLC to yield the title compound. HPLC retention time: 1.29 minutes; MS ESI (m/z) 468.6 (M+1)+, calc. 467.
