General description

2-Bromo-5-fluorobenzonitrile can be prepared from 3-fluorobenzonitrile vial bromination using 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBDMH).. It undergoes palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling with boronic acid derivative to form corresponding biaryl.

Application

2-Bromo-5-fluorobenzonitrile may be used in the preparation of 5-chloro-4,2?-difluorobiphenyl-2-carbonitrile.
