Participants

Reaction Steps

To 0.502 g (1.161 mmole) of ethyl-6-chloro-8-iodo-2-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate was added 67 mg (0.060 mmole) tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0), 22 mg (0.116 mmole) copper (I) iodide, 10 mL degassed toluene, 0.484 mL (3.48 mmole) degassed TEA, and 0.199 mL (1.74 mmole) 2-fluorophenylacetylene. The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The mixture was concd and the resulting oil was purified using reverse phase chromatography to afford 0.440 g (89%) of a crystalline solid: 1H NMR (CDCl3/400 MHz) 1.35 (t, 3H, J=6.8 Hz), 4.26-4.38 (m, 2H), 5.83 (q, 1H, J=6.8 Hz), 7.08-7.15 (m, 2H), 7.18 (d, 1H J=2.4 Hz), 7.31-7.37 (m, 1H), 7.45 (d, 1H, J=2.4 Hz), 7.49-7.53 (m, 1H), 7.63 (s, 1H); (ES+) 425 (M+1, 100).
