Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A 2.0-5.0 mL microwave vial was charged with XANTPHOS (14.66 mg, 0.03 mmol), Pd2(dba)3 (29.1 mg, 0.03 mmol), CESIUM CARBONATE (155 mg, 0.48 mmol),(2-chloro-6-methylpyridin-4-yl)methanol (50 mg, 0.32 mmol), tert-butyl carbamate (44.6 mg, 0.38 mmol) and dioxane (3 mL). The reaction mixture was degassed for 2 minutes with nitrogen, and then the reaction mixture was stirred at 80°C under microwave irradiation for 30 min. Water (5 mL) was added and the mixture was washed using EtOAc (3 x 10 mL). The organic layers were combined, dried using MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude material was loaded on a 12g silica gel column and purified on a Teledyne Isco instrument, eluting with 0% to 20% EtOAc in DCM. The product that seems to be the compound was collected. Unfrtunately NMR showed that this compound is dba. The compound was not isolated.
