Reaction Steps

1-(4-bromo-3-nitrophenyl)ethanone (2 g, 8.20 mmol) and (4-acetylphenyl)boronic acid (2.016 g, 12.29 mmol), aq.K2CO3 (2M, 12.08 mL, 24.17 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (0.33 g, 0.286 mmol) were dissolved in toluene (40 mL) and heated at 110° C. for 2 days. The crude product was extracted with DCM and purified on silica gel (0-100% EtOAc/Hexane). Fractions were concentrated to give the title compound as a white solid.
