Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-chloro-6-iodo-7-(phenylsulfonyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (1.9 g, 4.53 mmol) in 6:1 tetrahydrofuran/water (60 mL) was added 1-(methylsulfonyl)-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (1.56 g, 5.43 mmol), [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]dichloropalladium(II)-dichloromethane complex (0.37 g, 0.453 mmol) and cesium carbonate (3.54 g, 10.87 mmol). The mixture was heated at 50° C. overnight, cooled and diluted with 50 mL ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate, water, and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. Purification by flash chromatography on silica (Analogix 280) eluting with a gradient of 10% to 60% ethyl acetate/hexanes gave the title compound. MS (ESI+) m/z 452.5 (M)+.
