Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-bromo-5-fluoro-phenol (4.0 g, 20.7 mmol), 2-bromo-2,2-difluoro-N,N-dimethyl-acetamide (4.4 g, 21.6 mmol) and K2CO3 (3.2 g, 23.2 mmol) in 20 mL of DMAC was heated to 100° C. for 120 min. The mixture was then poured on 50 mL of H2O and extracted with TBME (2×50 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with 10% NaOH (50 mL), water and brine and dried over MgSO4. The product (5.7 g, >96% purity by NMR, 17.6 mmol, 85% yield) was obtained as a yellow oil that solidified upon standing.
