Reaction Steps

In a tube, a mixture of 1d (0.65 g, 2.15 mmol), 6-fluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (0.348 g, 2.6 mmol) in toluene (15 ml) was degassed by nitrogen flow for 15 minutes. To this mixture was added tris(dichlorobenzylidenacetone)palladium (0) (0.052 g, 0.055 mmol), 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′-(N,N-dimethylamino)biphenyl (0.08 g, 0.2 mmol) and potassium tert-butoxide (0.437 g, 3.9 mmol). The tube was heated under microwave irradiation (Biotage Initiator®) for 6 hour at 100° C. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, washed with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, concentrated and chromatographed to yield the title compound (0.584 g, 1.58 mmol, 73%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ 1.14 (s, 9H), 2.19 (s, 3H), 2.27 (s, 2H), 2.35 (s, 3H), 2.91 (t, J=6.2 Hz, 2H), 3.82 (t, J=6.2 Hz, 2H), 4.62 (s, 2H), 6.38 (s, 1H), 6.50 (bs, 1H), 6.85-6.92 (m, 2H), 7.09-7.16 (m, 1H).
