Procedure

To a toluene (10 mL) solution of 3-bromofuran (0.54 mL, 6.0 mmol) was added 3-formylphenylboronic acid (1.00 g, 6.7 mmol) and DMF (4 mL). To the resulting solution was added K2C03 (1.85 g, 13.4 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (0.40 g, 0.35 mmol). The slurry was heated to reflux under argon for 2 h. The cooled mixture was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to an oil. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel eluting with 5% ethyl acetate in hexane gave 0.10 g (10%) of the desired 3-(3-furanyl)benzaldehyde product as a yellow oil. MS: m/z=173.0 [M+H]+.
