Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

5 g (26 mmol) of 1,4-dichloro-2-cyclopropylbenzene, 9.4 g (58 mmol) of 1-n-butyl-4-ethynylbenzene, 19 g (58 mmol) of caesium carbonate, 69 mg (0.3 mmol) of bis(acetonitrile)palladium(II) chloride and 382 mg (0.8 mmol) of 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2′,4′,6′-triisopropylbiphenyl are dissolved in 80 ml of dioxane under nitrogen and heated at 100° C. overnight. 100 ml of water are added to the cooled solution, and the mixture is extracted twice with methyl t-butyl ether (100 ml). The combined organic phases are washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo. The residue is purified by column chromatography and recrystallised from ethanol, giving the title compound 1 as a solid.
