Participants

Reaction Steps

Using Method D above, 3-(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-1-propyne (132 mg, 0.69 mmol) (prepared by the addition of ethynylmagnesium chloride (Aldrich) to 2,3-dimethoxybenzaldehyde (Aldrich) according to Method A above) was coupled to (Z)-4-bromo-1,3-dihydro-3-[(3-methoxy-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene]-2H-indol-2-one (Starting Material 1) (98 mg, 0.31 mmol) using (Ph3P)2PdCl2 (38 mg) (Aldrich) and CuI (17 mg) (Aldrich) as catalyst in DMF (3 mL) and Et3N (3 mL) as solvent at 70° C. for 17 h, yielding rac-(Z)-1,3-dihydro-4-[3-(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-1-propynyl]-3-[(3-methoxy-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene]-2H-indol-2-one. (Yield 98 mg, 71%).
