Procedure

A mixture of 4-fluoroanisole-2-boronic acid (3.3 g, 19.4 mmol), 2-nitrobromobenzene (3.56 g, 17.6 mmol), triphenylphosphine (367 mg, 1.4 mmol), triethylamine (4.6 g, 45.8 mmol), and 40 mL of dimethylformamide was sparged with nitrogen for 5 minutes before adding palladium acetate (160 mg, 0.7 mmol) and heating the mixture to 100° C. for 5 hours. The reaction was cooled and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was shaken with 0.1N sodium hydroxide, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified via flash silica gel chromatography eluting with 2% ethyl acetate/hexanes followed-by 4% ethyl acetate/hexanes to give 7.5 g of the title compound. Yield: 86%. EA. MS(FD).
