The extracts were combined, washed sequentially with water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, 20:1 hexane/ ethyl acetate as eluent, to afford 1-bromo-3-(2-fluoroethoxymethyl)benzene as a yellow oil, 1 g (58% yield), 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 3.6 (dxt, 2H); 4.5 (dxt, 2H); 4.4 (s, 2 H); 7.3 (m, 2H); 7.5 (m, 2H); MS [(+)ESI] m/z 219 [M−H]+.
