Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-bromo-4-tert-butyl-5-nitro-phenylamine (27.3 g, 100 mmol) in toluene (200 mL) and water (100 mL) was added Et3N (27.9 mL, 200 mmol), Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (2.11 g, 3 mmol), CuI (950 mg, 0.5 mmol) and trimethylsilyl acetylene (21.2 mL, 150 mmol) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was heated at 70° C. in a sealed pressure flask for 2.5 h., cooled to room temperature and filtered through Celite®. The filter cake was washed with EtOAc. The combined filtrate was washed with 5% NH4OH solution and water, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (0-10% EtOAc/petroleum ether) to provide 4-tert-butyl-5-nitro-2-trimethylsilanylethynylphenylamine as a brown viscous liquid (25 g, 81%).
