Procedure

A mixture of 4-bromo-2-fluoro-6-methoxybenzonitrile (2, 5.22 g, 22.7 mmol), phenylboronic acid (4.15 g, 34 mmol) and 2 M Na2CO3 (23 mL) in toluene (100 mL) was purged with N2 for 10 min. Pd(PPh4)3 (2.62 g, 27.7 mmol) and EtOH (5 drops) were added. The mixture was then heated under N2 in a sealed tube at 80° C. for 18 h. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with EtOAc (300 mL), filtered through celite, concentrated and purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with ethyl acetate in hexane (0-100%) to afford the title compound (5.05 g, 97%) as a white solid: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.57-7.55 (m, 2H), 7.50-7.23 (m, 3H), 7.01-6.99 (m, 1H), 6.93 (s, 1H), 3.95 (s, 3H).
