Participants

Reaction Steps

Allyl 2-amino-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylate 4a (240 mg, 0.8385 mmol) and phenylsilane (181.5 mg, 206.7 μL, 1.677 mmol) were dissolved in dry DCM (6 mL). Pd(PPh3)4 (38.76 mg, 0.03354 mmol) was added and the resulting solution was stirred at RT for 2 hrs. The suspension was filtered and the collected solid was washed with DCM (3×1 mL). The solid was dried under vacuum at 40° C. to yield compound 5a (117 mg, 56%).
