Reaction Steps

Under an argon atmosphere, a zinc powder (3.18 g) was suspended in tetrahydrofuran (8 ml), 1,2-dibromoethane (0.061 g, 0.32 mmol) and trimethylsilylchloride (0.071 g, 0.65 mmol) were successively added at 60° C., and the mixture was stirred for 30 min. A solution of 3-chloro-2-fluorobenzyl bromide (7.48 g, 32.5 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was added dropwise to the solution prepared above at 60° C. The mixture was further stirred under heating for 1 hr to give a solution of 3-chloro-2-fluorobenzylzinc bromide in tetrahydrofuran.
