Reaction Steps

A degassed mixture of N-(5-bromo-3-(2-chlorophenylthio)pyridin-2-yl)-4-methylthiazol-2-amine (1.10 g, 2.66 mmol), 4,4,4′,4′,5,5,5′,5′-octamethyl-2,2′-bi(1,3,2-dioxaborolane) (1.35 g, 5.32 mmol), Pd(OAc)2 (60 mg, 0.27 mmol), tricyclopentylphosphine (93 mg. 0.40 mmol) and cesium fluoride (3.64 g, 23.9 mmol) in acetonitrile is heated at 90° C. for 5 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled and partitioned between ether and water. The crude product is dissolved in THF. N-morpholine N-oxide (1.40 g, 12.0 mmol) is added and the reaction mixture is heated at reflux for 12 hours. The reaction mixture is cooled and partitioned between ether and water. The organic layer is washed with water and brine, dried and concentrated. The residue is purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with 10-20% EtOAc in hexanes to afford the title compound.
