Reaction Steps

Slurry palladium(II) acetate (434 mg, 1.9 mmol), BINAP (1.2 g, 1.9 mmol), sodium-tert-butoxide (644 mg, 6.7 mmol), cyclohexylamine (1.4 g, 14.4 mmol) and 3-tert-butoxycarbonyl-7-chloro-6-(6-chloro-pyridin-3-ylmethylthio)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine (2.1 g, 4.8 mmol) in anhydrous toluene (70 mL). Degas the slurry under house vacuum, then buble nitrogen. Heat the mixture to 95° C. for 16 h under a nitrogen atmosphere. Cool the mixture to room temperature, dilute with EtOAc (50 mL) and filter through Celite®. Concentrate the filtrate to an oil and purify by chromatography on silica gel eluting with hexane/EtOAc (19:1 to 13:7 gradient) to obtain 3-tert-butoxycarbonyl-7-chloro-6-(6-cyclohexylamino-pyridin-3-ylmethylthio)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[d]azepine (800 mg, 33%). MS (ES+) m/z: 502.2 (M+H)+.
