Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

2-[(4-Bromo-3,5-dimethylphenyl)thio]ethyl ethyl ether (2.41 g, 8.33 mmol) and (3-formylphenyl)boronic acid (1.37 g, 9.16 mmol) were dissolved in a mixture of 2 M aqueous sodium carbonate solution (24 mL), ethanol (8 mL) and toluene (24 mL), the air was substituted with argon gas, and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (0.48 g, 0.42 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred under an argon atmosphere at 80° C. for 16 hr. After cooling the reaction mixture, saturated brine was added and the mixture was extracted with diethyl ether. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=10/1-hexane/ethyl acetate=5/1) to give the title compound (1.00 g, yield 38%) as a colorless oil.
