Procedure
In a 50 ml round-bottomed flask, 550 mg (2.07 mmol) of 2-bromo-6-(4-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)pyridine produced in step B was dissolved in 30 ml of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran forming a clear, colorless solution. 2,6-difluoroaniline (2.14 ml, 2.14 mmol) was added followed by 112 mg (2.79 mmol) of a 60% NaH suspension in mineral oil. Gas evolution was observed along with a mild exotherm. The solution was heated to reflux overnight and then cooled. The reaction mixture was poured in 10% NH4Cl and extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic extract was dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo to afford a brown oil that was a mixture of the product and starting material. The material was chromatographed on a short column of silica gel using 50% CH2Cl2/hexane to afford 262 mg (40%) of 2-(2,6-difluorophenyl)-6-(4-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)pyridine as a colorless oil.
