Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of the solvent mixture of 30 mL of 1,4-dioxane and 15 mL of water was added 2-(2-methoxy-5-methyl-3-nitro-phenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane 24a (3.1 g, 7.5 mmol) followed by 5-bromofuran-2-carboxylic acid (1.3 g, 6.8 mmol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.43 g, 0.4 mmol) and sodium carbonate (1.6 g, 15.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 1 hour. The reaction was monitored by TLC until the disappearance of the starting materials. The mixture was cooled and filtered. The filtrate was washed with ethyl acetate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was diluted with 50 mL of water and adjusted to pH 3 with concentrated hydrochloric acid and filtered. The filter cake was washed with ethyl acetate and dried to obtain the title compound 5-(3-nitro-2-methoxy-5-methyl-phenyl)-furan-2-carboxylic acid 46a (522 mg, 29%) as a yellow solid.
