Acetonitrile → 5-(6,7-Dihydropyrido[3,2-b]thieno[2,3-d]oxepin-9-yl)pyridin-2-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 9-bromo-6,7-dihydropyrido[3,2-b]thieno[2,3-d]oxepine (113 mg, 0.400 mmol), 2-aminopyridine-5-boronic acid, pinacol ester (96.8 mg, 0.440 mmol) and bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) chloride (14.0 mg, 0.0200 mmol) in 1.0 M of sodium carbonate in water (0.500 mL) and acetonitrile (3 mL, 60 mmol) was degassed and microwaved on 300 watts at 140° C. for 20 minutes. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water and filtered from inorganic salts. The organic layer was washed with water, brine, dried over MgSO4 and evaporated to dryness. The crude residue was purified on silicagel column, eluting with 50% of ethyl acetate in methylene chloride to give 142 (yield 43 mg, 36%).
