Reaction Steps

A solution of (Z)-1,3-dihydro-4-iodo-3-[(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene]-2H-indol-2-one (from Example 71, infra) (50 mg, 0.15 mmol), and 5-(2-propynyl)-6(5H)-phenanthridinone (45 mg, 0.19 mmol) (prepared according to Walser et al., J. Med. Chem. 34(3), 1209-1221 (1991)) in 1 mL tetrahydrofuran and 1 mL triethylamine was degassed by bubbling argon through the solution for 10 minutes. At this time, copper (I) iodide (11 mg, 0.06 mmol) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium(0) (3 mg, 0.03 mmol) were added, and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 72 hours. Water (10 mL) was then added and the precipitate was filtered off and dried. The product was purified via flash column chromatography (SiO2, 230-400 mesh) with ethyl acetate/hexane, to yield a yellow powder which was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/hexane, to give (Z)-5-[3-[2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-3-(1H-pyrrol-2-ylmethylene)-1H-indol-4-yl]-2-propynyl]-6(5H)-phenanthridinone. (Yield 25 mg, 38%).
