Abstract

A method for preparing a compound of Formula 1 comprising contacting a compound of Formulae 2 and 3 in the presence of a palladium source, a ligand, a base and carbon monoxide wherein R 1 , R 2 , X and R 3 are as defined in the disclosure. A method for preparing a compound of Formula 5 wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 and Z are as defined in the disclosure, using a compound of Formula 1 characterized by preparing a compound of Formula 1 by the method disclosed above or using a compound of Formula 1 prepared by the method above.

Claims (25)

1. A method for preparing a compound of Formula 1

wherein

R 1 is C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 haloalkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy or C 1 -C 6 haloalkoxy;

R 2 is F, Cl or cyano; and

R 3 is H, C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, C 4 -C 7 cycloalkylalkyl, C 4 -C 7 alkylcycloalkyl or cyclopropylcyclopropyl;

comprising contacting a compound of Formula 2

wherein

R 1 is C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 haloalkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy or C 1 -C 6 haloalkoxy;

R 2 is F, Cl or cyano; and

X is Br or I;

with a compound of Formula 3

R 3 NH 2   3

wherein

R 3 is H, C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, C 4 -C 7 cycloalkylalkyl, C 4 -C 7 alkylcycloalkyl or cyclopropylcyclopropyl;

in the presence of a palladium source, a ligand, a base and carbon monoxide.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein R 1 is C 1 -C 4 alkyl; and R 2 is Cl or cyano.

3. The method of claim 2 wherein R 1 is methyl; and R 2 is chloro.

4. The method of claim 2 wherein R 1 is methyl; and R 2 is cyano.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein X is Br.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein R 3 is H, methyl, isopropyl or cyclopropylcyclopropyl.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein R 1 is methyl; R 2 is Cl or cyano; and R 3 is methyl.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein the base is an organic base comprising a compound of Formula 3; R 3 is methyl or isopropyl; and the base is in a mole ratio of at least about 2 relative to a compound of Formula 2.

9. The method of claim 1 wherein the palladium source is a palladium(II) species and the ligand is selected from 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene and 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane.

10. The method of claim 9 wherein the palladium source is palladium(II) acetate and the ligand is 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane.

11. The method of claim 1 wherein the contacting is performed in a suitable solvent comprising ethylene glycol and N,N-dimethylethanolamine.
