Procedure

Tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (1 g) was added to a mixture of 5 g of 2-methoxyphenylboronic acid, 6.6 g 5-bromo-2-fluoronitrobenzene and 30 mL 2 M sodium carbonate solution in 50 mL toluene and 50 mL ethanol. The mixture was refluxed for 2 hours, concentrated, and the residue extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate layers were washed with water and brine, dried, and concentrated to give a dark green oil which solidified on standing to give crude 4-fluoro-2′-methoxy-3-nitrobiphenyl.
