Reaction Steps

To a stirred suspension of 8-chloro-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine (1 g, 4.59 mmol), (S)-2-(1-hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (3.43 g, 13.88 mmol), di-tert-butyl(2′,4′,6′-triisopropyl-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2-yl)phosphine (1.17 g, 2.76 mmol) and cesium carbonate (2.245 g, 6.89 mmol) in toluene (4 mL) was added palladium (II) acetate (0.309 g, 1.38 mmol). Nitrogen gas was bubbled through the mixture for 5 min, and then the mixture was heated at 80° C. for 14 h. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate (25 mL) and filtered through celite. The filtrate was washed with water (1×20 mL) and brine (1×20 mL), dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified via silica gel column chromatography (60% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to afford (5)-2-(1-((5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridin-8-yl)oxy)-4-methylpentan-2-yl)isoindoline-1,3-dione (2 g, 4.67 mmol, quantitative yield) as a semi solid. LCMS (ESI) m/e 429 [(M+H)+, calcd for C26H25N2O4 429.2].
