Reaction Steps

Add triethylamine (1.73 mL, 12.28 mmol), copper (I) iodide (34.0 mg, 0.180 mmol) and bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) dichloride (107.7 mg, 0.150 mmol) to a solution of 5-bromonicotinonitrile (562.2 mg, 3.07 mmol) and 1-ethynyl -3-trifluoromethoxybenzene, (prepared as described in PREPARATION 28), (571.4 mg, 3.07 mmol) in ethyl acetate (3 mL). Stir in a sealed tube at 50° C. for 18 h, concentrate and purify the residue by silica gel chromatography, eluting with 100:0 to 100:50 hexanes:ethyl acetate, to give the title compound (130 mg, 15%).
