Procedure

A mixture is prepared of 2,5-dibromopyridine (10 g, 42.21 mmol), phenylboronic acid (5.1 g, 42.21 mmol), and potassium carbonate (11.7 g, 84.42 mmol) in 100 mL dimethoxyethane and 40 mL of water. Nitrogen is bubbled directly into the mixture for 30 minutes. Next, tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) was added (244 mg, 2.11 mmol) and the mixture is heated to reflux under nitrogen overnight. The mixture is cooled and diluted with ethyl acetate and water. The layers are separated and the aqueous layer is extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layers are washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to a residue. The residue is purified by column chromatography eluting with 0, 2, and 5% ethyl acetate/hexanes.
