We report a practical synthesis of PI3K inhibitor GDC-0941. The synthesis was achieved using a convergent approach starting from a thienopyrimidine intermediate through a sequence of formylation and reductive amination followed by Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling. Metalation of the thienopyrimidine intermediate involving the intermediacy of triarylmagnesiates allowed formylation under noncryogenic conditions to produce the corresponding aldehyde. We also investigated aminoalkylation via a benzotriazolyl-piperazine substrate as an alternative to the reductive amination route. We evaluated both palladium and nickel catalyzed processes for the borylation and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling. Final deprotection and salt formation afforded the API.
