Water → 3-Bromo-6-[(6-isopropoxypyridin-3-yl)oxy]-pyridine

Participants

Reaction Steps

The mixture of Example 68B (1.0821 g, 7.064 mmol), 5-bromo-2-fluoropyridine (1.245 g, 7.074 mmol, 1.0 eq.), and K2CO3 (1.17 g, 8.47 mmol, 1.2 eq.) in dimethylsulfoxide (8 mL) was heated to 160° C. under microwave for 30 min. The reaction mixture was poured into water. The aqueous layer was extracted with ether (1×). The ether layer was washed with 10% NaOH (1×), brine (1×), dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The product was purified on silica gel eluting with ethyl acetate: hexane gradient to give the desired product as a solid (0.845 mg, 39%).
