Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-chloro-2-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)pyridine (400 mg), an allylpalladium chloride dimer (32.8 mg), tri-o-tolylphosphine (54.4 mg), sodium acetate (441 mg), dimethylacetamide (0.640 mL), tert-butyl methacrylate (0.724 mL) and toluene (2 mL) was stirred in a nitrogen atmosphere at 120° C. for 3.5 hours. The reaction solution was left to cool to room temperature. Then, a silica gel was added and the reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (elution solvent: heptane-ethyl acetate system) to obtain 313 mg of tert-butyl (E)-3-[6-methoxy-5-(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)pyridin-2-yl]-2-methylacrylate. The ester was diluted with trifluoroacetic acid (2.48 mL) and methylene chloride (2.48 mL), and the reaction solution was stirred at room temperature for 3.5 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 260 mg of the title compound. The property value of the compound is as follows.
