Reaction Steps

A [1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]palladium dichloride dichloromethane complex (1.49 mg, 0.002 mmol), a 2 M sodium carbonate solution (0.1 mL, 0.2 mmol) and [1-(4-bromo-phenyl)-1-methyl-ethoxy]-trimethylsilane (Example 15-(1); 26.25 mg, 0.091 mmol) were added to a solution of (R)-5-(4-{1-ethyl-1-[3-methyl-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-[1,3,2]dioxaborolan-2-yl)-phenyl]-propyl}-2-methyl-phenoxymethyl)-dihydro-furan-2-one (Example 15-(3); 30 mg, 0.061 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (0.1 mL) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at 85° C. for 13.5 hours. Ethyl acetate was added to the reaction solution. The organic layer was washed with distilled water and brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (n-hexane/ethyl acetate=3/1, developed three times) to give the title compound (16.7 mg, 47.9%).
