Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.21 g (21.0 mmol) of Na2CO3 in a mixture of 80 ml of water and 25 ml of methanol was purged with argon for 30 min. The obtained solution was added to a mixture of 2.80 g (8.40 mmol) of N-phenyl-7-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-amine, 2.90 g (8.40 mmol) of N-[(6-bromopyridin-2-yl)methyl]-2,6-diisopropylaniline, 0.48 g (0.40 mmol) of Pd(PPh3)4, and 120 ml of toluene. This mixture was stirred for 12 h at 70° C., then cooled to room temperature. The organic layer was separated, the aqueous layer was extracted with 3×50 ml of ethyl acetate. The combined organic extract was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to dryness. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel 60 (40-63 um, eluent: hexane-ethyl acetate-triethylamine=100:5:1, vol.). Yield 2.00 g (50%) of a yellow oil. Anal. calc.
