Reaction Steps

5-Bromo-4-chloro-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyri dine (3.70 g, 9.96 mmol, see Example 6) and phenylboronic acid (1.27 g, 10.5 mmol) were placed in 2:1 toluene:EtOH (30 mL). The contents were then degassed under Ar and heated to 80° C. for 24 hours. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, diluted with DCM, and poured into water. The organic fraction was filtered, dried, and concentrated. Purification was carried out by column chromatography (1:1 to 1:2 hexane:DCM) to give 4-chloro-5-phenyl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (3.20 g, 87.1% yield).
