Procedure

To (5-bromo-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-(5-isopropyl-2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methanone (2.2 g, 5.44 mmol), and 2-vinyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaboralane (1.2 ml, 6.53 mmol) in MeOH (25 ml) and toluene (25 ml) was added Na2CO3 in water (25 ml). The reaction was degassed, Pd(PPh3)4 (0.38 g, 0.05 mmol) added then heated at 80° C. overnight. The reaction was worked up by adding water and extracting with EtOAc (×3). The combined organic layers were washed with brine and dried over MgSO4. The product was filtered and evaporated to dryness then purified by flash column chromatography, gradient elution (ether:petrol) to yield 5-isopropyl-2,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)-(5-vinyl-1,3-dihydro-isoindol-2-yl)-methanone as a yellow oil (1.6 g). 1H NMR (Me-d3-OD) 7.47-7.15 (3H, m), 7.15 (1H, s), 6.82-6.72 (1H, m), 6.71 (1H, s), 5.79 (1H, dd), 5.24 (1H, dd), 4.90 (2H, d), 4.64 (2H, d), 3.93 (3H, s), 3.91 (3H, s), 3.27 (1H, sept), 1.23 (6H, d). MS: [M+H]+ 352.
