Ethynyltrimethylsilane (2.28 g, 23.2 mmol) in TEA (20 mL) was added and the resulting mixture was stirred at rt over night. The reaction mixture was then diluted with Et2O and filtered through a Celite pad. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with 5% EtOAc in hexanes to afford 2-fluoro-4-((trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)aniline (4.4 g, 100%) as a brown solid. LCMS (ESI) m/z 208 (M+H)+.
