Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-Bromo-4-chlorophenol (2.12 g, 10.2 mmol) in 25 mL acetone was added iodoethane (0.850 mL, 10.6 mmol) and cesium carbonate (4.08 g, 12.5 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water, and the organic portion washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated to yield 2.37 g (98%) of 2-bromo-4-chloro-1-ethoxybenzene as a yellow oil, which was carried forward without further purification. LCMS (ESI) no m/z signal; 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ: 7.67 (d, J=2.6, 1H), 7.39 (dd, J=8.8, 2.6, 1H), 7.12 (d, J=8.9, 1H), 4.11 (q, J=7.0, 2H), 1.35 (t, J=7.0, 3H).
