Procedure

A mixture of 2-bromophenylboronic acid (2.01 g, 10 mmol), 4-chloro-2-iodo-1-[(phenylmethyl)oxy]benzene (3.445 g, 10 mmol), potassium carbonate (5.52 g, 40 mmol) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (580 mg, 0.5 mmol) in 1:1 toluene/ethanol (45 ml) was stirred and heated at 90° C. under nitrogen for 2 hours when a further 1 g (4.98 mmol) of 2-bromophenylboronic acid and 0.2 g (0.17 mmol) of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) were added. The mixture was heated for 6 hours then cooled, diluted with diethyl ether/water and the organic phase separated, dried (magnesium sulphate) and evaporated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica eluting with ethyl acetate/iso-hexane (1:49) then rechromatographed eluting with dichloromethane/iso-hexane (1:9) to give 2.06 g of colourless gum which slowly crystallised.
