ABSTRACT:
An object of the present invention is to provide a method capable of producing a 1,2-phenylethane compound with extremely high yield in a short amount of time. Disclosed is a method for producing a 1,2-phenylethane compound, which comprises subjecting a compound represented by formula (I):wherein Ra represents a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group; Rb represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent; n represents an integer of 1 to 5 and, when n is 2 or more, Rb may be the same or different, or may be combined with each other to form a ring; and X represents a halogen atom; to a coupling reaction in the presence of a transition metal complex to produce a compound represented by formula (II):
