Procedure

To a solution of 3-bromo-2-fluorobenzaldehyde (1.0 g, 4.93 mmol) in THF (21.42 mL) cooled to −78° C. was added (2-methoxyphenyl)magnesium bromide in THF (5.91 mL, 5.91 mmol). The reaction mixture was maintained at −78° C. for at least 1 hr, and then allowed to warm to room temperature. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and additional (2-methoxyphenyl)magnesium bromide in THF (5.91 mL, 5.91 mmol) was added. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature overnight. The reaction was quenched with a saturated aqueous solution of NH4Cl. The reaction mixture was diluted with DCM. The layers were separated and the aqueous phase extracted twice with DCM. The organic extracts were combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to afford a yellow residue. The crude material was dissolved in a minimal amount of DCM and purified via silica gel chromatography using an ISCO machine (80 g column, 60 mL/min, 0-0% EtOAc in hexanes over 27 min, tr=19 min) gave the title compound (1.22 g, 3.92 mmol, 80% yield) as a pale yellow liquid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 7.54-7.40 (m, 2H), 7.35-7.23 (m, 2H), 7.09-6.90 (m, 3H), 6.38 (s, 1H), 4.12 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 1H), 3.76 (s, 3H).
