Procedure

A solution of 2-bromo-1-iodo-3-methylbenzene (200 mg, 0.67 mmol), 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (220 mg, 0.81 mmol), sodium carbonate (214 mg, 2.02 mmol) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (38.9 mg, 0.034 mmol) in toluene (2.0 mL)/EtOH (1.2 mL)/Water (0.2 mL) was heated in an oil bath at 80° C. overnight. The reaction was concentrated and the resultant residue purified by column chromatography (100% Hexanes) to yield 2-bromo-3-methyl-3′-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl.
