Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3,6-dichloropyridazine (6 g, 40.3 mmol), vinyl boronic acid pinnacol ester (6.21 g, 6.83 mL, 40.3 mmol), potassium carbonate (120 mmol, 16.7 g), 1,4-dioxane (60 mL) and water (24 mL) was degassed for 15 min with nitrogen gas. Dichloro[1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]palladium(II) dichloromethane adduct (0.4 mmol, 292 mg) was then added and the mixture heated to 80° C. for 4 hours. The aqueous phase was then removed via pipette and the organic phase concentrated onto silica gel and purified via flash column chromatography (SiO2, hexane:ethyl acetate 100:0-60:40) to return the title compound as a white solid (5.2 g, 92% yield). 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 5.75 (1H, d), 6.25 (1H, d), 7.05 (1H, dd), 7.49 (1H, d), 7.59 (1H, d). MS m/z=141 (M+H+)+.
