Reaction Steps

N-{(1R,2R)-1-benzyl-2-hydroxy-3-[(3-methoxybenzyl)amino]propyl}-3-bromo-5-methylbenzamide (X, EXAMLE 761, 295 mg, 0.59 mmol), 2-furanylboronic acid (133 mg 1.19 mmol) and sodium carbonate (366 mg, 2.95 mmol) are combined in dimethylformamide (5 ml) and sparged under a flow of nitrogen for 15 minutes. Tetrakis(triphenylphosphino) palladium (136 mg, 0.12 mmol) is added and the mixture heated to 100 degrees C. overnight. The mixture is cooled to 20–25 degrees C., diluted with chloroform (50 ml) and extracted with water (3×100 ml). The organic phase is separated and washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate (2×100 ml) and saline (100 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressue. The residue is chouromatographed (silica gel; methanol/methylene chloride, 8/92) to give the title compound, MS [M+H]+=485.3.
