Trimethylsilylacetylene → HCID 86715741, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A pressure vessel was charged with TEA (7.65 mL, 55.2 mmol), ethynyltrimethylsilane (2.32 mL, 16.6 mmol), copper (I) iodide (0.263 g, 1.380 mmol), palladium (0) tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) (0.558 g, 0.483 mmol), 3-bromo-5-chloropicolinonitrile (3.0 g, 13.8 mmol), and DMF (50 ml). The vessel was flushed with argon, sealed, stirred at ambient temperature for 15 minutes, and then heated at 50° C. for 4 hours. The solution was diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were concentrated, and the residue was purified by silica-gel chromatography, eluting 0-50% ethyl acetate in hexane, to afford the title compound (1.3 g, 5.5 mmol). MS m/z=235 (M+H).
