29 Preparation of 4-fluoro-2-isopropoxy-l-nitrobenzene
A mixture of 5-fluoro-2-nitrophenol (50.0 g, 318 mmol, 1 equiv), 2-iodopropane (96.0 mL, 955 mmol, 3 equiv), and K2CO3 (132.0 g, 955 mmol, 3 equiv) in acetone (1 L) was heated to reflux for ON. After cooling to RT, the solid was filtered-off and rinsed with DCM, then the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The residue was taken in water, EtOAc, and IN NaOH. The layers were separated, and the organic layer was washed with IN NaOH lx. The organic layer was dried over Na2S04, filtered, and concentrated to dryness to provide 4-fluoro-2-isopropoxy-l -nitrobenzene (49.3 g, 78%) as a yellow-brown liquid that was used without further purification. 1H NMR (300 MHz; 6-DMSO) δ 7.91-7.96 (dd, 1H, J = 6.3Hz, 9.0Hz), 7.31-7.35 (dd, 1H, J = 2.4Hz, l lHz), 6.88-6.95 (m, 1H), 4.77-4.89 (hep, 1H, J = 6.0Hz), 1.27-1.29 (d, 6H, J = 6.0Hz); 19F NMR (282 MHz; 6-DMSO) δ -102.4 (sextet); m/z = 200 (M+H)+. |

29
A mixture of 5-fluoro-2-nitrophenol (91.0 g) , 2- iodopropane (103.4 g) , potassium carbonate (146 g) and N,N- dimethylformamide (600 mL) was stirred at 50°C for 3.5 h. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and water was added to the residue. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by basic silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane=0/100 to 30/70, volume ratio) to give the title compound (75.4 g, 65%) as a yellow oil. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 1.42 (6H, d, J = 6.0 Hz), 4.63 (IH, spt, J = 6.1 Hz), 6.64-6.73 (IH, m) , 6.76 (IH, dd, J = 10.6, 2.5 Hz), 7.88 (IH, dd, J = 9.0, 6.0 Hz) . |
