Triphenylphosphine → methyl N-[[2-chloro-5-[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]phenyl]methyl]-carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture methyl [(2-chloro-5-iodo-phenyl)methyl]carbamate (i.e. the product of Step B) (3.0 g, 9.2 mmol), ethynyltrimethylsilane (1.94 mL, 13.8 mmol), bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) dichloride (0.032 g, 0.05 mmol), copper(I) iodide (0.018 g, 0.09 mmol), triphenylphosphine (0.024 g, 0.09 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (18 mL) and triethylamine (18 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was concentrated onto silica gel (7 g) and then purified by medium pressure liquid chromatography (0 to 25% gradient of ethyl acetate in hexanes as eluant) to provide the title compound as an oil (1.37 g).
