The resulting solution is then cooled and added, dropwise, to a solution of 2-bromopyridine (50.3 g) and bis-triphenylphosphinepalladium(II) chloride (3.5 g) in tetrahydrofuran (100 mL) at reflux, and the mixture is maintained at reflux for 6 hours. The solution is then evaporated and the residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with water, dried and evaporated to give a dark oil. This is subjected to flash chromatography on silica gel, eluting with a mixture of pentane and ethyl acetate (2:1 v/v) to give 2-(2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)pyridine (28 g) in the form of an oil.
