Procedure

A solution of 2,4-difluoronitrobenzene (10.0 mL) and morpholine (17.4 mL) in THF (100 mL) was stirred at RT under N2 for 2 h. The solvent was removed and the residue was partitioned between EtOAc and water. The organic layer was washed brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated. The resulting solid was purified by chromatography on silica gel with 20–50% EtOAc in hexane to give 18.1 g of 4-fluoro-2-morpholinonitrobenzene and 1.81 g of 2-fluoro-4-morpholinonitrobenzene. ESI mass spectrum z (rel. intensity) 227.1 (M+H, 100).
