2-(2-Bromo-4-nitrophenyl)-2-methylpropane-1,3-diol (0.145 g, 0.500 mmol) was dissolved in 2.5 mL of anhydrous benzene. Cyanomethylenetributylphosphorane (CMBP) (0.181 g, 0.750 mmol) was then added and the solution was allowed to stir at room temperature for 72 hours. The mixture was evaporated to dryness and then re-dissolved in 4 mL of EtOH. Tin(II) chloride dihydrate (0.564 g, 2.50 mmol) was then added and the resulting solution was heated at 70° C. for 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and then quenched with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate. The mixture was then extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined ethyl acetate extracts were evaporated to dryness and purified by preparative LC/MS to yield 3-bromo-4-(3-methyloxetan-3-yl)aniline as a pale yellow oil (0.032 g, 32%) NMR (400 MHz, CD3CN) δ 7.13 (dd, J=0.7, 1.8 Hz, 1H), 6.94-6.88 (m, 2H), 6.75 (br s, 2H), 4.98 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 2H), 4.51 (d, J=6.1 Hz, 2H), 1.74 (s, 3H). ESI-MS m/z calc. 241.0, found; 242.1 (M+1)+ Retention time 0.53 minutes.
