Procedure

7.55 g (16.95 mmol) of the obtained 2-bromo-9,10-diphenyl-9,10-dihydroanthracene-9,10-diol, 5.06 g (30.51 mmol) of potassium iodide, 9.70 g (91.52 mmol) of sodium phosphinate monohydrate, and 50 mL of glacial acetic acid were put into a 500 mL three-neck flask, and the mixture was heated at 120° C. for 2 hours. Thereafter, 30 mL of 50% phosphinic acid was added to the mixture, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at 120° C. After the reaction, the mixture was washed with water, and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was dissolved in toluene, and the solution was filtered through celite, Florisil, and then alumina. The filtrate was concentrated, and the residue was recrystallized with chloroform and hexane, giving 5.1 g of 2-bromo-9,10-diphenylanthracene as a light yellow solid in 74% yield.
