Procedure

To a stirring solution of 6-bromo-3-(difluoromethoxy)-2-methoxyphenol (100 mg, 0.371 mmol) in acetonitrile (10 mL), was added potassium carbonate (153.8 mg, 1.114 mmol) and isobutyl bromide (152.6 mg, 1.114 mmol) and the resultant reaction mixture was heated to 80° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to RT, filtered through celite and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 300 mg of 1-Bromo-4-(difluoromethoxy)-2-isobutoxy-3-methoxybenzene as a solid. To a stirring solution of 1-bromo-4-(difluoromethoxy)-2-isobutoxy-3-methoxybenzene (200 mg, 0.615 mmol) in dimethylformamide (5 mL) was purged with argon for 1 h. To this cesium carbonate (599 mg, 1.84 mmol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium(0) (35 mg, 0.030 mmol) and 5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)isoindolin-1-one (191 mg, 0.738 mmol) were added and the resultant reaction mixture was heated to 80-90° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to RT, filtered and the filtrate was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×). The combined ethyl acetate layer was washed with brine and dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue by column chromatography (silica gel, 0-20% ethyl acetate in pet ether) afforded the title compound as a (30 mg, 13%).
