Reaction Steps

2-(2-fluoro-4-methoxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (600 mg, 2.38 mmol), methyl 4-bromo-3-fluorobenzoate (665 mg, 2.856 mmol), 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino) ferrocene-palladium dichloride dichloromethane adduct (292 mg, 0.358 mmol), potassium carbonate (2.38 ml, aq., 2M, 4.76 mmol) and 1,4-dioxane (10 ml) were sealed and subject to microwave irradiation at 145° C. for 15 min. Aliquot indicated formation of the desired cpd. TLC (20% EtOAc/hex) indicated a bright purple spot @ Rf=0.4. Crude mixture was dried/Na2SO4 then purified by flash chromatography (SiO2, Biotage 40+M cartridge). The column was eluted by a 0% to 20% EtOAc/hexanes mixture. Related fractions were pooled and concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound. LCMS (ESI) calc.=278.08; found=279.09 (M+1)+.
