Procedure

Pd(Ph3P)4 in a 500-mL round-bottom flask under N2 atmosphore was treated sequentially with a solution of 1-bromo-3-fluoro-2-iodo-benzene (30 g, 0.1 mol) in toluene (250 mL), a solution of 2N aq Na2CO3 (200 mL) and 3-methyl phenylboronic acid in ethanol (62 mL). This mixture was heated at reflux under N2 for 12 h, then cooled to rt. The mixture was partitioned between water and EtOAc, the combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, evaporated and purified by column chromatography to give 6-bromo-2-fluoro-3′-methyl-biphenyl (12 g). 1H NMR (400MHz, CD3OD): 7.03 (m, 2H), 7.48-7.04 (m, 4H), 7.50 (d, 1H).
