Sodium Carbonate → 2-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-N-[6-chloro-4-(5-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)-3-pyridinyl]-N,2-dimethylpropanamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-N-(6-chloro-4-iodo-3-pyridinyl)-N,2-dimethylpropanamide (200 mg, 0.363 mmol), 2-methyl-5-fluorobenzene boronic acid (73 mg, 0.472 mmol), sodium carbonate (0.4 mL, 2M solution), tetrakistriphenylphosphinepalladium (4 mg, 0.00363 mmol) in dioxan were heated together in the microwave at 110° C. for 30 minutes. The mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and Brine. The Aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc×3. The combined extracts were dried and evaporated. The residue was purified on a 12+M column eluting with Pet Et2O to 60% EtOAc/Pet Et2O to afford the title compound in a 27% yield.
