反応手順

A 30-ml four-necked flask was equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a dropping funnel and a reflux condenser. 0.014 g (0.08 mmol) of palladium (II) chloride, 0.0194 g (0.19 mmol) of triethylamine and 5.5 ml of tetrahydrofuran were weighed in the flask, followed by stirring. Further, 0.093 g (0.16 mmol) of tri-tert-butylphosphonium tetra-para-tolylborate obtained in Example B-3 was weighed in air and added into the flask. The flask was purged with argon, followed by stirring at 21° C. for 30 minutes. 1.368 g (8 mmol) of 4-bromotoluene was added, followed by stirring at 21° C. for 30 minutes. 4 ml (8.8 mmol) of 2.2M tetrahydrofuran solution of phenylmagnesium chloride was added dropwise at 21° C. over a period of 10 minutes, followed by stirring at 21° C. for 2 hours. After the completion of the reaction, 5 ml of saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution was added, followed by separation. The organic phase was purified by column chromatography to afford 1.171 g of 4-methylbiphenyl (yield: 87 mol % based on 4-bromotoluene). The identification of the product was made by mass spectroscopy.
