Participants

Reaction Steps

A 20 ml screw-cap vial was filled with the following solids: CuO (0.05 mmol, 4.0 mg), anhydrous CuCl2 (0.05 mmol, 6.7 mg), K2CO3 (2.0 mmol, 277 mg), 3-difluoromethyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid amide (1.1 mmol, 193 mg) and 5-bromo-9-dichloromethylene-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,4-methano-naphthalene (1.0 mmol, 304 mg). A magnetic stir bar was added, and the open vial was gently flushed with N2. Dioxane (2 mL) was added, followed by N,N′-dimethylethylenediamine (0.45 mmol, 48 μl). The vial was sealed and placed into a preheated screening block at 130° C. Conversion was complete after 24 hours. The yield (HPLC-analysis) of the compound of formula I was 70%.
