Procedure
To a degassed mixture of 5.0 g (17.9 mmol) of 3,5-dibromophenylboronic acid in 50 mL of THF and 25 mL of 2 M Na2CO3 (aqueous) was added 1.13 g (0.975 mmol) of Pd(PPh3)4 and 2.3 mL of 2-bromopropene. The mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 5 h, and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with 25 mL of brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated. Purification by flash silica gel chromatography (10% EtOAc/hexanes) provided 1,3-dibromo-5-(prop-1-en-2-yl)benzene with some impurity.
