Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To water (2 mL) and dimethoxyethane (20 mL), 5-chloro-2-nitrophenylboronic acid (3.27 g, 16.4 mmol), 1-fluoro-4-iodobenzene (3.65 g, 16.4 mmol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.95 g, 0.82 mmol) and potassium carbonate (6.81 g, 49.3 mmol) were added, and the mixture was stirred under a nitrogen atmosphere at 60° C. for 2 hours. After the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and ethyl acetate (30 mL) was added. After the organic phase was washed with water (30 mL) and saturated brine (20 mL), it was dried with sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to give 5-chloro-4′-fluoro-2-nitrobiphenyl as a crude product. The obtained compound was used for the subsequent reaction without further purification.
