Procedure

A solution of 1,4-dibromobenzene (8.3 g, 35.3 mmol), potassium carbonate (11.3 g, 81 mmol) and 5-chloro-2-formylphenylboronic acid (5 g, 27.1 mmol) in DME (150 mL) and water (30 mL) (in a pressure vessel) was sparged with nitrogen for 15 min. Pd(PPh3)4 (0.94 g, 0.814 mmol) was added and the reaction heated to 80° C. overnight. The reaction was cooled to r.t. and evaporated on the rotovap. The residue was diluted in EtOAc and washed with water then brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to give the crude material. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography on the Biotage (0-15% EtOAc:Hex) to give 4′-bromo-5-chlorobiphenyl-2-carbaldehyde (4.17 g, 14.11 mmol, 52% yield) as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 7.18-7.28 (m, 2H) 7.42 (d, J=2.01 Hz, 1H) 7.50 (ddd, J=8.41, 2.01, 0.88 Hz, 1H) 7.59-7.69 (m, 2H) 7.98 (d, J=8.53 Hz, 1H) 9.92 (s, 1H).
