Reaction Steps

N-[(6-Bromopyridin-2-yl)methyl]-N-propylpropan-1-amine (7.0 g, 26 mmol) was dissolved in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (100 mL). Tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (1.49 g, 1.29 mmol) was added and the solution was heated to 50° C. for 15 minutes. The solution was cooled and 2,4,6-trimethylbenzeneboronic acid (4.44 g, 27.1 mmol) in 30 mL 1,2 dimethoxyethane was added followed by potassium tert-butoxide (5.79 g, 51.6 mmol) in 30 mL of tBuOH. The reaction was heated at 90° C. for 0.5 h. The solution was filtered through filter paper and concentrated. Flash chromatography gave 3.83 g of the title compound (48% yield).
