4-Amino-3′-fluoro[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-carbonitrile was prepared from 3-fluorophenyl boronic acid and 2-amino-5-bromobenzonitrile according to the procedure of Example 4. A solution of 4-amino-3′-fluoro[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-carbonitrile (6.65 g, 31.3 mmol) in anhydrous THF (100 mL) was treated drop wise at room temperature under nitrogen with methylmagnesium bromide (3.0 M in ether, 21 mL, 63 mmol). The reaction mixture was then heated at gentle reflux for 1.5 hours, cooled to room temperature, and treated with 3N aqueous hydrogen chloride solution (30 mL). The resulted mixture was heated at reflux for 3 hours, cooled to ambient temperature, and adjusted to a pH of 5-6 by the addition of a saturated aqueous sodium carbonate solution. Ethyl acetate (100 mL) was added, the organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The residue was purified by a silica gel chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate/3:1) to afford 1-(4-amino-3′-fluoro[1,1′-biphenyl]-3-yl)ethanone (3.1 g, 43%): mp 156-157° C.
