General description

1-Bromo-2-nitrobenzene undergoes palladium[0]-mediated Ullmann cross-coupling reaction with a range of β-halo-enals, -enones or -esters to afford the corresponding β-aryl derivatives. Palladium[0]-mediated Ullmann cross-coupling reaction of 1-bromo-2-nitrobenzene with β-bromo-α,β-unsaturated aldehydes is reported.

Application

1-Bromo-2-nitrobenzene may be used in the preparation of:
  • 4-methoxy-2′-nitrodiphenyl ether
  • 1-methoxy-3,5-bis-(2-nitro-phenoxy)benzene
  • 5-hydroxy-3-methoxy-2′-nitrodiphenyl ether
