Procedure

To a degassed solution of ethyl alcohol (400 mL) in a Parr steel bomb was added sodium acetate (43.3 g, 528 mmol), 2-bromo-5-fluoropyridine (20 g, 114 mmol), 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (2.27 g, 4.09 mmol) and palladium acetate (204 mg, 0.91 mmol). The vessel was put under nitrogen and sealed with Parr top. The atmosphere was displaced with carbon monoxide gas and the pressure was adjusted to 300 psi. The mixture was heated to 90° C. After 3 h, the pressure dropped to below 100 psi. The vessel was cooled to ambient temperature and the reaction was repressurized with carbon monoxide to 300 psi. The vessel was heated to 90° C. for an additional 4 h. The vessel was cooled to ambient temperature and the remaining carbon monoxide was vented. The mixture was concentrated to half of the volume. Ethyl acetate (500 mL) and water (300 mL) were added. The organic layer was isolated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Purification by silica gel chromatography (100% hexanes→70% hexanes/ethyl acetate) gave the title compound. MS 170.0 (M+1).
