Procedure

In a 100 ml round-bottomed flask, 7.92 g (33.4 mmol) of 2,6-dibromopyridine was dissolved in 50 ml of anhydrous toluene forming a clear, colorless solution. 4-fluoro-2-methylbenzene boronic acid (5.09 g, 33.1 mmol) produced in step A was added forming a white suspension. Thallium carbonate (17.45 g, 37.2 mmol) was added followed by a catalytic amount (150 mg) of Pd(PPh3)4. The mixture was heated to reflux overnight, cooled, and filtered over a pad of silica gel. The silica was washed with CH2Cl2 and the filtrate was evaporated to afford a white solid. The solid was dissolved in a minimal amount of 50% CH2Cl2/hexane and chromatographed on a short column of silica gel using 30% CH2Cl2/hexane to afford 6.55 g (74%) of the 2-bromo-6-(4-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)pyridine as a white solid.
