Abstract

10.1021/acs.oprd.8b00043 picture

Two convergent syntheses for compound 1 are described that apply Buchwald–Hartwig coupling as the key step. This development work provides a direct comparison of the coupling results from different coupling partners and illustrates that more efficiency can be achieved by selecting the right coupling partners.
