Water → 1-Bromo-3-(difluoromethoxy)-5-fluorobenzene

Temperature

25 °C

To a solution of 3-bromo-5-fluorophenol (0.5 g, 2.6 mmol) in DMF (4.5 mL) was added K2CO3 (0.9 g, 6.54 mmol) and stirred at 25° C. for 10 min. Water (0.5 mL) was added to the above mixture followed by addition of 2-Chloro-2,2-difluoroacetic acid sodium salt (0.6 g, 3.93 mmol) and stirring was continued at 100° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to 25° C. and diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the crude, which was purified by column chromatography (using silica gel and 2% ethyl acetate in Hexane as eluent) to afford the desired compound (Int-45). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.2-6.9 (2H, m), 6.8-6.7 (1H, d), 6.7-6.2 (1H, m).
