Reaction Steps

A solution of 1 mmol of n-butyllithium (1N in hexane) is added dropwise to a solution of 1 mmol of 1-bromo-5-chloro-4-fluoro-2-iodo-benzene in 20 ml of tetrahydrofuran cooled to −78° C. After the addition, 1.1 mmol of N,N-dimethylformamide is added and the mixture is allowed to warm to room temperature. 100 ml of tert-butylmethyl ether then 20 ml of water are added. The organic phase is separated, washed with 20 ml of brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue is purified by flash chromatography (SiO2 60 F) to afford the title compound which is identified based on the Rf value.
