2-Bromo-4-fluorotoluene Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

To 2-bromo-4-fluoro-1-methylbenzene (6.0 g, 31 .9 mmol, commercial source: Combi-Blocks), Chlorosulfonic acid (6.5 g, 55 mmol, commercial source: Avra) was added dropwise at 0 C. This reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 5 h. Upon completion, the reaction mixture was quenched in ice-water (60 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3x50 mL). The combined organic solution was washed with sat. NaHCC>3 (20 mL). The organic phase was dried over anhydrous Na2S04, filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 4-bromo-2-fluoro-5- methylbenzene-1-sulfonyl chloride (7 g, crude). The compound was used without further purification.300 mL dry THF was charged to an oven dried 1000 mL three neck RBF fitted with two septa and a nitrogen inlet. A solution of diisopropylamine (20.0 ml, 142 mmol) in THF (300 mL) was in an ice/water bath. n-butyllithium (45 ml, 113 mmol) solution was added slowly and stirred at 0 C. for an additional 15 minutes before cooling in an iPrOH/CO2 bath. 2-bromo-4-fluoro-1-methylbenzene (12 ml, 97 mmol) was added slowly over 10 minutes and stirred cold for 1 hour before carbon dioxide was bubbled through the mixture. After 20 minutes bubbling while cold, the reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature while still bubbling, after which 100 mL of water was added. The organic layer was extracted with 3×100 mL 0.1M aq. NaOH. Combined water layers were washed with EtOAc and acidified to pH 1 with 6M HCl. Extraction with EtOAc, drying and condensation under reduced pressure afforded 19.24 g (85%) of the (14).
