Procedure

2-Bromo-3-methyl-cyclopent-2-enone (Intermediate TEN1) (commercially available from Aldrich) (2.04 g, 11.4 mmol) and K2CO3 (3.16 g in 11 mL H2O) in toluene (45 mL) was treated with a solution 4-cyanophenylboronic acid (commercially available from Aldrich) (2.2 g, 15 mmol) in EtOH (27 mL). Tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium(0) Pd(PPh3)4 (0.4 g), bis(dibenzylideneacetone) palladium(0), Pd2(dba)3 (0.055 g, ˜5 mol %) and triphenylphosphine (0.4 g) were added and the mixture was purged with N2 for 15 m. The mixture was heated to 80° C. for 15 h. The mixture was diluted with water and EtOAc:hexane. After extracting with EtOAc:hexane, the combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to dryness. The crude oil was purified by column chromatography on silica gel with CH2Cl2 to give 4-(2-methyl-5-oxo-cyclopent-1-enyl)-benzonitrile (Intermediate TEN2) 1.74 g.
