Reaction Steps

Into a 500-mL 3-necked round bottom flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, was placed a solution of 1-(4-nitro-3-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)piperidine (15 g, 45.18 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in DME/H2O (100/5 mL), 2-chloro-4-fluoropyridine (7.80 g, 60.00 mmol, 1.20 equiv), K3PO4 (31 g, 146.23 mmol, 3.00 equiv), 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′,6′-dimethoxybiphenyl (SPhos) (2.00 g, 4.88 mmol, 0.10 equiv), and Pd(PPh3)4 (2800 mg, 2.42 mmol, 0.05 equiv). The resulting solution was stirred for 1 overnight at 80° C. in an oil bath. The reaction progress was monitored by LCMS. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The resulting solution was diluted with 200 mL of H2O, extracted with 3×300 mL of dichloromethane, and the organic layers combined. The resulting mixture was washed with 1×20 mL of brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a silica gel column and eluted with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (10:1). The product was obtained as 8 g of a yellow solid.
