Reaction Steps

By the method of example 53(A), but using bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(II) acetate as catalyst (3 mol %), phenylacetylene and 4-bromobenzaldehyde are coupled to give 4-(2-phenylethynyl)benzaldehyde in 70% yield after distillation. By the methods of example 1, this is converted into the title compound, obtained as a colorless solid, mp 190°-191° after recrystallization from hexane-ethyl acetate.
