Procedure
2,6-Dibromo-pyridine (2 g, 8.44 mmol) and phenol (0.794 g, 8.44 mmol) were dissolved in DMSO (20 mL) and potassium tert-butoxide (0.947 g, 8.44 mmol) was added. The reaction was heated to 160° C. overnight then allowed to cool to room temperature. The reaction was submitted to aqueous workup and silica gel chromatography to afford the title compound.
