Procedure

To 1-bromo-4-nitro-benzene (700 mg, 3.46 mmol), 1-cyclopentenylboronic acid (392 mg, 3.50 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (200 mg, 0.17 mmol), and Cs2CO3 (2258 g, 6.93 mmol) was added DME (8.4 mL) and ethanol (1.4 mL) and the reaction mixture was heated at 105° C. for 3 h. The reaction was concentrated in vacuo and purified by silica gel chromatography (0-100% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to provide 1-(1-cyclopentenyl)-4-nitro-benzene (545 mg, 83% yield). 1H NMR (400.0 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.19-8.15 (m, 2H), 7.58-7.52 (m, 2H), 6.44-6.42 (m, 1H), 2.77-2.71 (m, 2H), 2.62-2.56 (m, 2H), 2.11-2.03 (m, 2H).
