Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-(aminocarbonyl)phenyl boronic acid (0.663 g; 4.0 mmol), 1,1-dimethylethyl 6-{[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]oxy}-3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-isoquinoline carboxylate (1.28 g; 3.35 mmol; Ex V-16) in DMF (10 mL) was sparged with N2 for 10 min, K3PO4 (1.7 g; 8.0 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (0.193 g; 0.17 mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 2 h. Upon cooling, the mixture was poured into water and extracted with EtOAc (×3). Combined organics were washed (H2O, brine), and dried over Na2SO4. Residual solids were collected from the aqueous layer by filtration, air-dried, dissolved in hot EtOH and combined with the dried EtOAc extracts. The whole was adsorbed onto a minimal amount of silica gel and purified by flash chromatography (EtOAc/hexanes), affording the title compound as a as a colorless solid. LC/MS (method B) 2.69 min; m/z 297 ([M−C4H8]+H, 70%), 253 ([M−Boc]+H, 74%).
