(+ or −2° C.). A deep red colour developed. The temperature was ramped to 18° C. over 0.5 hour and the reaction stirred for a further 1.5 hours. 5-Bromo-2-fluorobenzaldehyde (limiting reagent) as a solution in THF (5 volumes) was then added over 90 minutes, such that the temperature of the reaction did not exceed 24° C. The reaction was then stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured into saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution (10 volumes) and extracted with t-BME (2×2.5 volumes). The combined extracts were washed with brine (3×2 volumes), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo. The oily residue was extracted with iso-hexane (8×0.5 volumes). Combined iso-hexane extracts were filtered, then washed with glacial acetic acid (2 volumes) and 50% glacial acetic acid in water (2 volumes). After drying (Na2SO4) and filtering, the solvent was removed on a rotary evaporator to give a pale orange oil. Yield was 90% of theoretical.
