Procedure
To a cooled (−78° C.) solution of 2,5-dibromofurane (3.06 g, 8.88 mmol) in anhydrous diethyl ether (50 ml) was added n-Butyllithium (3.9 ml of 2.5M solution in Hexanes, 9.77 mmol). The mixture was stirred at this temperature for 90 minutes before the addition of 2-chloropyrimidine. The mixture was stirred for a further 30 minutes before being warmed to room temperature and stirred for further 2 hours. DDQ (2 g, 8.88 mmol) was them added to the solution which was stirred for 30 minutes before being concentrated in vacuo to give a thick brown syrup. The syrup was dissolved in EtOAc and washed with saturated sodium carbonated solution. The organic extract was removed, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give a crude residue which was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2) (100% hexane going to 7:2—hexane:EtOAc) to give the title compound (3.06 g, 40.20%) in pure form. m/z (LC-MSW, ESP):346 [M+H]+, R/T=4.41 mins
