Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-bromo-2-chloro-pyridine (1.5 g, 7.8 mmol) in DME/water/EtOH 5:1:1 (20 mL) was added (2-methoxyphenyl)boronic acid (1.49 g, 9.8 mmol), Pd(PPh3)2Cl2 (112 mg, 0.16 mmol), and Na2CO3 (1.65 g, 15.6 mmol). The mixture was heated at 125° C. for 90 minutes in a microwave oven. It was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, cHex/EtOAc 100:0 to 80:20) to give the title compound A1 (1.07 g, 62%). MS (ES) C12H10ClNO requires: 219. found: 220 (M+H)+.
