Procedure

To a solution of 3,5-dibromopyridine (XXXIV) (1.03 g, 4.36 mmol) in THF (7 mL) under argon was added CuI (50 mg, 0.26 mmol) and PdCl2(dppf)2 (178 mg, 0.22 mmol). Benzylzinc(II) bromide (XXXV) (0.5M in THF) (13.09 mL, 6.55 mmol) was slowly added by syringe. The reaction was heated at 50° C. over the weekend. The reaction was quenched with water and extracted with EtOAc. The EtOAc was separated, washed with water, brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified on a silica gel column (100% hexanes→5:95 EtOAc:hexanes) to afford 3-benzyl-5-bromopyridine (XXXVI) (0.614 g, 2.47 mmol, 57% yield) as a light brown oil. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ ppm 3.98 (s, 2H), 7.19-7.23 (m, 1H), 7.27-7.32 (m, 4H), 7.92-7.93 (m, 1H), 8.51 (d, J=2 Hz, 1H), 8.54 (d, J=3 Hz, 1H); ESIMS found for C12H10BrN m/z 248 (M+H).
