Reaction Steps

Under a nitrogen atmosphere, sodium carbonate (8.5 mg, 0.08 mmol), water (500 μL), palladium tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) (13 mg, 0.012 mmol) and 6-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)chroman (21 mg, 0.078 mmol) were added to a solution of methyl 2-(5-bromo-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)-2-(tert-butoxy)acetate (30 mg, 0.078 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (2 mL). The mixture was heated at 120° C. for 2 hours. The mixture was then cooled at room temperature and water (10 mL) was added. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×10 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine (10 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 90/10) to afford the desired product (6d) as a white solid (24 mg, 0.055 mmol, 70%).
