Reaktionsschritte

A solution of methyl 2-chloro-3-nitrobenzoate (2.16 g, 10.0 mM), 2-methoxybenzeneboronic acid (1.64 g, 10.5 mM), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0) (584 mg, 0.5 mM), and 2 M aqueous sodium carbonate (10.5 mL, 21.0 mM) in 50 mL of THF was wrapped in aluminum foil and stirred at reflux for 27 hours. The THF was removed in vacuo and the residue dissolved in ethyl acetate. The mixture was washed with with H2O, 1 N HCl, H2O, sat. NaHCO3, and saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The resultant light brown oil was purified by column chromatography on silica (elution with gradient toluene/ethyl acetate) to afford 2.0 g (69%) of 2-carbomethoxy-6-nitro-2′-methoxy-biphenyl as a yellow-orange solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ8.05 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.95 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.55 (t, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.35 (t, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.05 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.0 (t, 1H, J=8 Hz), 6.9 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 3.7 (s, 3H), and 3.6 (s, 3H). IR (KBr, cm−1) 1730, 1538, 1499, 1366, 1298, 1271, 1130, 774, 765, 759, 752, and 707. MS (ES) m/e 288.
