Procedure

To a solution of 1-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene (6.60 g, 36.6 mmol), K3PO4 (12.9 g, 60.9 mmol), 1-(4-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylphenyl)ethanone (5.00 g, 30.5 mmol) in toluene (60.9 mL) was added 2-di-tert-butylphosphino-2′,4′,6′-triisopropylbiphenyl (388 mg, 0.91 mmol) and Pd(OAc)2 (288 mg, 1.28 mmol). The reaction was heated at 100° C. for 120 min under N2. The solution was cooled to room temperature and filtered through a small pad of Celite. The cake was washed with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and combined filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel to give 1-(2,6-dimethyl-4-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy)phenyl)ethanone (1.8 g) as yellow oil in 19% yield: 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.58 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 2 H), 7.04 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 2 H), 6.70 (s, 2 H), 2.50 (s, 3 H), 2.25 (s, 6 H).
