Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of methyl 2-bromo-4-methylbenzoate (1.06 g, 4.63 mmol), vinyltrifluoroborate potassium salt (621 mg, 4.63 mmol), Pd(dppf)Cl2 (203 mg, 0.28 mmol) and TEA (1.40 g, 13.89 mmol) in n-PrOH (11 mL) was purged with nitrogen, and heated to 100° C. for 2 h. It was then cooled to room temperature and filtered, the filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate twice. Organic extract was concentrated and purified by flash column chromatograph to give 500 mg of the title compound (60%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 2.40 (3H, s), 3.88 (3H, s), 5.33 (1H, dd, J=1.2 Hz, 10.8 Hz), 5.62 (1H, dd, J=1.2 Hz, 17.6 Hz), 7.12 (1H, d, J=8.0 Hz), 7.37 (1H, s), 7.48 (1H, dd, J=10.8 Hz, 17.6 Hz), 7.80 (1H, d, J=8.0 Hz).
