Procedure

In a 1 l round-bottomed flask was added ethyl 2-(5-bromo-3-nitropyridin-2-yloxy)acetate (18.33 g, 60.1 mmol), phenylboronic acid (10.99 g, 90 mmol), triphenylphosphine (4.73 g, 18.02 mmol) and cesium fluoride (45.6 g, 300 mmol) in 1,2-dimethoxyethane (300 ml) to give a yellow solution. The reaction mixture was degassed by bubbling nitrogen for 30 minutes. Palladium(II)acetate (2.023 g, 9.01 mmol) was added and the mixture was heated to 75° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere overnight. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure to give a brown solid. This was re-dissolved in dichloromethane, filtered and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure to give a brown solid The crude residue was purified via Biotage chromatography (gradient 5% to 60% ethyl acetate in n-hexanes) to give the title compound (6.9 g, 38%). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.58 (1H, s), 8.56 (1H, s), 7.59-7.52 (2H, m), 7.48-7.46 (2H, m), 7.45-7.43 (1H, m), 5.13 (2H, s), 4.30-4.26 (2H, q), 1.33-1.30 (3H, t).
