Reaction Steps

The title compound was prepared starting from 4.22 g (24.14 mmol) of 4-bromofluorobenzene and 5.00 g (28.97 mmol) of 4-chloro-2-fluoroacetophenone in analogy to the synthesis of the compound from Example 176A. A difference was that the crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (mobile phase: cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 9/1). 5.23 g (73% of theory) of the title compound were obtained.
