Procedure
To a solution of 2,6-dimethylbenzyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (2.21 g, 4.8 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (30 mL) was added a solution of potassium tert-butoxide (5 mL of a 1 M solution in THF, 5 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min. The mixture was cooled to −78° C. and 6-fluoro-3-iodobenzaldehyde (1.0 g, 4.0 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred overnight. The mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and water and the combined organics were washed with 1 M HCl and brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by flash chromatography (100% hexanes) gave (E)-2-(2-fluoro-5-iodostyryl)-1,3-dimethylbenzene (0.280 g) and (Z)-2-(2-fluoro-5-iodostyryl)-1,3-dimethylbenzene (0.472 g) with additional product collected as an E/Z mixture (0.450 g). Total yield (1.20 g, 85%). Trans-isomer: 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.12 (dd, J=7.2, 2.4 Hz, 1H), 7.63 (dq, J=8.8, 2.4 Hz, 1H), 7.34 (d, J=16.8 Hz, 1H), 7.04-7.09 (m, 4H), 6.61 (d, J=16.8 Hz, 1H), 2.30 (s, 6H).
