A solution of 2-(5-fluorobenzofuran-3-yl)ethanol (5.2 g) and tetrabromomethane (11.6 g) in acetonitrile (175 mL) was treated with triphenylphosphine (8.3 g) at 0° C. After stirring for 15 min, the mixture was concentrated in vacuo an the resulting oil was applied to a silica gel flash column (eluent: heptane/ethyl acetate 65:35) resulting in an oil, 3-(2-bromoethyl)-5-fluorobenzofuran (7.4 g).
