Reaction Steps

To two microwave vials with stir bars were added (R)—N—((S)-1-(4-bromo-2,5-difluorophenyl)ethyl)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide (500 mg, 1.47 mmol), 1-Methyl-4-1H-pyrazoleboronic acid, pinacol ester (917 mg, 4.41 mmol), DME (6 ml), Na2CO3 (3.67 ml, 7.35 mmol) (2.0 M aq) and PdCl2(dppf).CH2Cl2 adduct (60.0 mg, 0.07 mmol) divided evenly between the two vessels. Vessels were capped and heated by microwave irradiation for 20 min at 100° C. Reaction mixtures were combined, diluted with a saturated solution of NH4Cl and EtOAc. Phases partitioned. Aqueous phase extracted with EtOAc and organic phases combined, washed with water, brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated onto silica gel. Silica gel column chromatography (EtOAc/Heptane 60 to 100%) provided (R)—N—((S)-1-(2,5-difluoro-4-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)phenyl)ethyl)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide (370 mg, 1.08 mmol, 73.7% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCL3) δ ppm 1.23 (s, 9H) 1.57-1.60 (m, 3H) 3.33 (d, J=4.06 Hz, 1H) 3.97 (s, 3H) 4.79-4.88 (m, 1H) 7.10 (dd, J=11.20, 6.06 Hz, 1H) 7.20 (dd, J=10.78, 6.19 Hz, 1H) 7.76 (d, J=2.20 Hz, 1H) 7.82 (s, 1H).
