Procedure

To a stirred solution of 4-bromo-3-methoxyaniline (1 g, 4.98 mmol) in 3:2 toluene/water (10 mL) was added cyclopropylboronic acid (514 mg, 5.98 mmol), Pd(OAc)2 (56 mg, 0.25 mmol), PCy3 (140 mg, 0.5 mmol) and K3PO4 (3.18 g, 15 mmol) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 10 h. The solid was filtered and the filtrate concentrated in vacuo. Purification by silica gel chromatography (2-10% ethyl acetate/hexanes) provided 4-cyclopropyl-3-methoxyaniline (200 mg, 25%) as a brown solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) 6.67 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 6.24-6.20 (m, 2H), 3.82 (s, 3H), 3.50 (brs, 2H), 2.02-1.95 (m, 1H), 0.85-0.79 (m, 2H), 0.57-0.51 (m, 2H).
