Procedure

To a mixture of 10% Pd/C (cat), 3-iodophenol (220 mg, 1.00 mmol) and 4-(trifluoromethyl)phenylboronic acid (284 mg, 1.49 mmol) was added a solution of K2CO3 (415 mg, 3.01 mmol) in water (10 mL) and the reaction mixture was heated in a Biotage microwave (170° C., absorption high, pre-stirring 10 s) for 20 min. The crude reaction mixture was then extracted into EtOAc (40 mL×3) and dried over MgSO4 to yield 3-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)phenol as a yellow solid (212 mg, 89%, 99% purity by HPLC) which was used without further purification.
