Procedure

A mixture of 2,5-dibromopyridine (4.33 g, 17.7 mmol), 3-bromophenylboronic acid (4.70 g, 21.3 mmol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (0) (800 mg, 0.692 mmol), 2 M Na2CO3(aq) (18 cm3), EtOH (18 cm3) and toluene (50 cm3) was degassed and heated at reflux with a bath temperature of 105° C. under argon for 23 h. The reaction was allowed to cool and the two phases were separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with ether (3×15 cm3). The organic layer and the ether extracts were combined, washed with brine (1×40 cm3) and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvents were completely removed to leave an orange oil. The oil was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using DCM-light petroleum (0:1 to 1:10) as eluent to give 2.50 g (45%) of B-1 as a pale yellow solid; δH (200 MHz; CDCl3) 7.26-7.42 (1 H, m, ArH), 7.57 (2 H, m, PyH & ArH), 7.88 (2 H, m, PyH & ArH), 8.14 (1 H, m, ArH), and 8.74 (1 H, m, PyH); m/z [CI(NH3)] 312, 314, 316 (MH+).
