Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-bromo-1-methyl-1H-indazole (76 mg, 0.36 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (5 mL) was added tetrahydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one (Aldrich, 216 mg, 2.16 mmol), followed by Pd2(dba)3 (16 mg, 0.02 mmol), 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene (31 mg, 0.06 mmol) and cesium carbonate (176 mg, 0.54 mmol). The reaction mixture was degassed with nitrogen and heated at 100° C. for 16 hours. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and brine, and dried over Na2SO4 and filtered. Concentration and purification by flash column chromatography (hexanes/EtOAc) yielded 1-(1-methyl-1H-indazol-5-yl)tetrahydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one. LCMS-ESI+: calc'd for C12H14N4O: 231.2 (M+H+); Found: 231.2 (M+H+).
