Reaction Steps

In a 48 mL sealed tube equipped with a magnetic stirring bar was placed 5-bromo-2-methoxypyridin-3-amine (16) (1.0 g, 4.0 mmol), N-(2-methyl-3-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamide (1(2.4 g, 6.7 mmol), and Pd(PPh3)4 (0.30 g, 0.20 mmol) in DME/1N Na2CO3 (10 mL, 1/1). After the reaction mixture was degassed for 15 min., it was heated at 95° C. for 16 h. Then, the mixture was cooled to room temperature and diluted with dichloromethane (10 mL) and H2O (10 mL), and the layers were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with dichloromethane (3×10 mL), and the combined organic extracts were washed with H2O (5 mL) and brine (5 mL), dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated. The crude mixture was purified by column chromatography, gradient 0-25% MeOH in dichloromethane, to afford 1.0 g (65%) of N-(3-(5-amino-6-methoxypyridin-3-yl)-2-methylphenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxamide (17) as a solid.
