Procedure
Tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.8 g) was added to a mixture of 4.2 g of 3-ethoxyphenylboronic acid, 5.0 g 5-bromo-2-fluoronitrobenzene and 22 mL 2 M sodium carbonate solution in 50 mL toluene and 50 mL ethanol. The mixture was refluxed for 2 hours and then concentrated. Water was added and the mixture was extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate layers were washed with water and brine brine, then dried and concentrated. The residue was chromatographed on silica gel using 5% ethyl acetate in hexane to give 5.3 g (90% yield) of crude 4-fluoro-3′-ethoxy-3-nitrobiphenyl as a yellow oil.
