Reaction Steps

N-[3-methyl-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl]-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-2-amine (INTERMEDIATE 3, 134 mg, 0.35 mmol), the compound from Step 2 (96 mg, 0.35 mmol), cesium carbonate (346 mg, 1.06 mmol), X-Phos (16.9 mg, 0.035 mmol) and Pd2(dba)3 (16.2 mg, 0.018 mmol) were placed in a flask and evacuated/purged with N2 for three times. Dioxane (1.5 mL) and water (0.15 mL) were degassed by undersurface N2 bubbling and added to the reaction vessel. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 5 hrs and then diluted with EtOAc (5 mL), washed with brine (5 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica (gradient elution 7% to 60% EtOAc in Hexanes) to give the title compound (128 mg, 0.289 mmol, 82% yield) as an off white foam. MS ESI: [M+H]+ m/z 444.1. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CD3-OD) δ 8.72 (d, J=5.0, 1H), 8.06 (bs, 1H), 8.00 (s, 1H), 7.48 (bs, 1H), 7.16 (bs, 1H), 7.14 (d, J=4.9, 1H), 2.41-2.37 (m, 5H), 2.06-2.00 (m, 2H), 1.94-1.89 (m, 2H), 1.85-1.73 (m, 3H), 1.40 (m, 1H). rhSYK activity=++.
