Procedure

A round-bottomed flask was charged with 4-bromo-2,6-dichloropyridine (Combi-Blocks Inc., 553 mg, 2.437 mmol), phenylboronic acid (446 mg, 3.66 mmol) and trans-dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (ii) (27.8 mg, 0.04 mmol). The vial was placed under nitrogen atmosphere using two evacuation/backfill cycles. 1,4-dioxane (12 ml) and sodium carbonate (775 mg, 7.31 mmol) in water (4.1 ml) were added. The reaction mixture was sealed under nitrogen and heated at 80° C. for 1.5 h. The reaction mixture combined with that on pp14 was partitioned between EtOAc and brine. The aqueous layer was back extracted with EtOAc (2×) and the combined EtOAc layers were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The crude material was dissolved in DCM, and purified by chromatography through a Redi-Sep pre-packed silica gel column (40 g), eluting with a gradient of 0% to 20% EtOAc in hexane, to provide 2,6-dichloro-4-phenylpyridine (146 mg, 0.652 mmol, 26.7% yield) as light-yellow oil. MS m/z=224.0 [M]
