Reaction Steps

Phenylboronic acid (2.0 g, 16.4 mmol) and 2,5-dibromo-1,3,4-thiadiazole (4.0 g, 16.4 mmol) are refluxed for 24 hours in a mixture of sodium carbonate (15.64 g), toluene (60 ml), ethanol (30 ml) and water (30 ml) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (10 mol %) as catalyst. Aqueous work-up and column chromatography (SiO2, CH2Cl2 /ethyl acetate 9:1) give 1.5 g (38% of theory) of 2-bromo-5-phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole.
