Reaction Steps

A mixture of tert-butyl (3-bromo-2-chloro-5-cyanophenyl)carbamate (440 mg, 1.326 mmol), tert-butyl octahydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine-1-carboxylate (300 mg, 1.326 mmol), Pd2dba3 (121 mg, 0.133 mmol), BINAP (248 mg, 0.398 mmol), and cesium carbonate (1296 mg, 3.98 mmol) in Dioxane (12 mL) was evacuated and back filled with nitrogen 3× and heated at 105° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was filtered through a plug of celite and the filtrate was concentrated. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using an automated ISCO system (80 g column, eluting with 5-35% ethyl acetate/hexanes), tert-butyl 5-(3-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)-2-chloro-5-cyanophenyl)octahydro-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-c]pyridine-1-carboxylate (358 mg) was obtained as a foaming solid.
