To potassium isopropylidene trifluoroborate (4.87 g, 32.7 mmol) and 5-bromo-2,4-dimethoxybenzoic acid methyl ester (7.5 g, 27.3 mmol) in THF (195 ml) was added Cs2CO3 (26.6 g, 81.8 mmol) in water (39 ml). The reaction was degassed and Pd(PPh3)4 (1.58 g, 1.36 mmol) added. The reaction was heated at reflux for three days then quenched by adding water and extracted with EtOAc (×2). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to leave an orange solid. The product was taken up in EtOAc again and the precipitate filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness to yield 5-isopropenyl-2,4-dimethoxy-benzoic acid methyl ester (6.2 g). 1H NMR (Me-d3-OD) 7.68 (1H, s), 6.66 (1H, s), 5.10-5.08 (1H, m), 5.02-5.00 (1H, m), 3.93 (3H, s), 3.92 (3H, s), 3.84 (3H, s), 2.08-2.06 (3H, m). MS: [M+H]+ 237.
