Potassium Phosphate, Tribasic → [5-(4-{1-ethyl-1-[3-methyl-4-(4-trimethylsilanyloxy-tetrahydro-pyran-4-ylethynyl)-phenyl]-propyl}-2-methyl-phenyl)-pyridin-3-yl]-acetic Acid Methyl Ester

Reaction Steps

(5-Bromo-pyridin-3-yl)acetic acid methyl ester (Example 24-(2); 40 mg, 0.173 mmol), palladium acetate (2.7 mg, 0.012 mmol), 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′,6′-dimethoxy-1,1′-biphenyl (9.9 mg, 0.024 mmol), potassium phosphate (74 mg, 0.348 mmol) and water (0.2 mL) were added to a solution of 4-(4-{1-ethyl-1-[3-methyl-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-[1,3,2]dioxaborolan-2-yl)-phenyl]-propyl}-2-methyl-phenylethynyl)-4-trimethylsilanyloxy-tetrahydro-pyran (Example 130-(4); 66.4 mg, 0.116 mmol) in toluene (3 mL). After replacement with nitrogen, the mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 3.5 hours. The reaction mixture was then poured into a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, followed by extraction with dichloromethane. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=1:1) to give the target compound as a colorless oil (62.9 mg, 91%).
