Participants

Reaction Steps

The title compound was synthesized according to the same general procedure described for the synthesis of 4-bromo-1-(2-iodo-ethyl)-2-methyl-benzene in Preparation #2, Step 1, except that 2-(4-bromo-2-fluoro-phenyl)-ethanol was used instead of 2-(4-bromo-2-methylphenyl)ethanol to yield the title compound as a clear oil (5.75 g, 95.7%) 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 3.13-3.24 (m, 2H) 3.26-3.44 (m, 2H) 7.06-7.14 (m, 1H) 7.21-7.24 (m, 1H) 7.26-7.31 (m, 1H)
