Reaction Steps

A mixture of ethyl 4-(3-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)-7-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-5-carboxylate (54.4 mg, 0.104 mmol), 4-bromopyrimidine-2-carbonitrile (38.2 mg, 0.208 mmol), and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (24 mg, 0.021 mmol) in 2 M aqueous sodium carbonate (150 uL) and DME (500 μL) was purged with argon. The reaction vessel was then sealed and heated at 95° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite and rinsed with ethyl acetate. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue purified by chromatography on silica eluting with 40-60% ethyl acetatehexane to give the desired product. LRMS calc'd for C26H29N6O3Si [M+H]+: 501, found 501.
