Procedure

To a solution of 2-tert-butyl-4-bromo-5-nitrophenol (C-14-a) (8.22 g, 30 mmol) in DMF (90 mL) was added 2-ethoxyphenyl boronic acid (5.48 g, 33 mmol), potassium carbonate (4.56 g, 33 mmol), water (10 ml) and Pd(PPh3)4 (1.73 g, 1.5 mmol). The mixture was heated at 90° C. for 3 h under nitrogen. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was partitioned between water and ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with water and brine, dried and purified by column chromatography (petroleum ether-ethyl acetate, 10:1) to afford 2-tert-butyl-4-(2-ethoxyphenyl)-5-nitrophenol (9.2 g, 92%). 1HNMR (DMSO-d6) δ 10.38 (s, 1H), 7.36 (s, 1H), 7.28 (m, 2H), 7.08 (s, 1H), 6.99 (t, 1H, J=7.35 Hz), 6.92 (d, 1H, J=8.1 Hz), 3.84 (q, 2H, J=6.6 Hz), 1.35 (s, 9H), 1.09 (t, 3H, J=6.6 Hz); ESI-MS 314.3 m/z (MH+).
