Procedure

To a solution of 4-bromo-2-methoxybenzonitrile (2.08 g, 9.81 mmol) and 4-(trifluoromethyl)phenylboronic acid (2.80 g, 14.7 mmol), potassium fluoride (1.71 g, 29.4 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (1.13 g, 0.98 mmol) in toluene (40 mL) added water (10 mL). The mixture was stirred at 110° C. for 12 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with water and extracted with ethyl acetate (20 mL×3). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by silica gel chromatography gave 3-methoxy-4′-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-4-carbonitrile (2.66 g) as a colorless solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.67 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.63-7.56 (m, 3H), 7.15 (dd, J=8.0, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 7.06 (s, 1H), 3.95 (s, 3H).
