Procedure

Sodium carbonat (3.34 g, 32 mmols), 1-bromo-2-fluorobenzene (3.68 g, 21 mmols), water (1.1 g, 63 mmol) and 40 ml of dioxane are placed in a glass autoclave. The autoclave is rinsed with nitrogen and heated to 120° C. A solution of palladium bis(benzonitrile) dichloride (161 mg, 0.42 mmols) and dinorbornylphosphine (420 mg, 1.90 mmols) in 2 ml of dioxane (prepared under argon) is added, and then 6 bars CO are applied. After 16 hours at 135° C., the mixture is allowed to cool. The reaction mixture is taken up in sodium hydroxide solution and diethyl ether. The aqueous phase is separated and acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid. The title compound precipitates in the form of colourless crystals. Yield of title compound: 1.6 g (54%).
