Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-bromo-8-(2-pyridin-4-yl-imidazol-1-yl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazine (4) (4.0 g), 3-aminophenylboronic acid hydrochloride (2.41 g), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (Pd(PPh3)4) (1.36 g), 2.5 Maqueous potassium phosphate (K3PO3) (10 ml), and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) (80 ml) is heated at 95° C. for 16 hours. The mixture is cooled to rt, treated with water (50 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×80 ml). The extracts are washed with water (1×50 ml) and brine (1×50 ml), dried over Na2SO4, and evaporated in vacuo. Purification on SiO2 (5% MeOH, DCM) yielded 3-[6 -Bromo-8-(2-pyridin-4-yl-imidazol-1-yl)-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-6-yl]-phenylamine (5) (3.36 g) as a cream solid.
