4-Fluoro-4'-phenylethynylbenzophenone was synthesized by the cuprous iodide catalyzed coupling of 4-bromo-4'-fluorobenzophenone. More specifically, 4-bromo-4'-fluorobenzophenone (30 grams, 0.11 mol), phenylacetylene (11 grams, 0.11 mol), triphenylphosphine (0.2 gram), cuprous iodide (0.1 gram), bis(triphenylphosphine) palladium dichloride (0.1 gram) and 450 milliliters of triethylamine were charged to a 500 milliliter flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, N2 inlet, and reflux condenser. The mixture was heated to reflux for 4 hours, cooled to 23° C., and stirred for an additional 16 hours. The mixture was then poured into water acidified with HCl and the precipitate was collected by filtration. Recrystallization from acetone gave 23 grams (75 percent yield) of the desired product.
