Reaction Steps

A mixture of 7-chloro-2-(2-chlorophenyl)-3-iodopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (I-1A-1d; 50 mg, 0.13 mmol), 4-chlorophenylboronic acid (30 mg, 0.19 mmol), Na2CO3 (108 mg, 0.67 mmol), and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (15 mg, 0.013 mmol) in ethanol (1 ml) and water (0.23 ml) was degassed (3×) by pulling a vacuum followed by refilling with nitrogen gas. The reaction was heated at 72° C. for 2 hr, cooled to room temperature, and then extracted from water with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and then concentrated, in vacuo. Purification on a Chromatotron using 20% ethyl acetate in hexanes as eluant afforded compound 14A-1 (17 mg, 30%) as a solid: +ESI MS (M+1) 450.3; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD2Cl2) δ 8.62 (d, J=4.1 Hz, 1H), 8.01 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 7.56 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 7.51–7.36 (m, 6H), 7.28 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 7.04 (d, J=4.1 Hz, 1H).
