Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of CuI (7.7 mg, 0.041 mmol) in triethylamine (2.28 mL) were added 2-bromopyridine (129 mg, 0.82 mmol) and (PPh3)2PdCl2 (28.7 mg, 0.041 mmol). The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and tert-butyl 4-chlorophenyl(pent-4-ynoyl)carbamate (250 mg, 0.82 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and then heated under reflux for 3 h at 70° C. Triethylamine was evaporated, water was added and the aqueous phase was extracted twice with DCM. The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude residue was purified by flash chromatography (prepacked 25 g silicagel column/Cyclohexane/AcOEt: 70/30 as eluent) to afford 172 mg (Yield: 55%) of tert-butyl 4-chlorophenyl(5-(pyridin-2-yl)pent-4-ynoyl)carbamate as a yellow oil.
