Procedure

A stirred mixture of 11.0 grams (0.043 mole) of ethyl 3-(3-bromophenyl)-2-propenoate, 5.8 grams (0.047 mole) of phenylboronic acid, 0.25 gram (catalyst) of tetrakis-(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0), and 54.0 mL (0.110 mole) of a 2M solution of aqueous sodium carbonate in 100 mL of toluene was heated at reflux during a two hour period. After this time the reaction mixture was cooled, and the aqueous layer was separated. The toluene layer was washed with two 100 mL portions of water and then with 100 mL of an aqueous solution saturated with sodium chloride. The toluene layer was dried with magnesium sulfate and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, yielding 12.0 grams of ethyl 3-(3-phenylphenyl)-2-propenoate. The NMR spectrum was consistent with the proposed structure.
