Reaction Steps

A solution of N-(6-(2-(dimethylamino)ethoxy)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl)-2-(2-fluoro-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)acetamide (30 mg, 0.059 mmol), 2-(benzyloxy)-4-ethoxy-5-iodopyridine (20.84 mg, 0.059 mmol), PdCl2(dppf) (42.9 mg, 0.059 mmol) and Cs2CO3 (19.12 mg, 0.059 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (3 mL) and H2O (1 mL) was stirred at 110° C. for 15 min. After LCMS analysis showed the starting material had disappeared, the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in EA (30 mL) and washed with H2O (10 mL) and brine (10 mL). The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by preparative TLC (DCM/MeOH=10/1) to yield 2-(4-(6-(benzyloxy)-4-ethoxypyridin-3-yl)-2-fluorophenyl)-N-(6-(2-(dimethylamino)ethoxy)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-3-yl)acetamide (5 mg, 6.97 μmol, 11.9% yield): 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 8.56 (s, 1H), 8.33 (d, J=2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.99 (s, 1H), 7.48-7.30 (m, 8H), 6.51 (s, 1H), 5.38 (s, 2H), 4.64 (t, J=5.2 Hz, 2H), 4.16 (m, 2H), 3.84 (s, 2H), 3.03 (t, J=5.2 Hz, 2H), 2.53 (s, 6H), 1.40 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 3H); ES-LCMS m/z 613.1 (M+H).
