A key step in the synthesis of naproxen, an NSAID more commonly known by its brand name, Aleve (Section 3.9), is a coupling reaction of 2-bromo6-methoxynaphthalene to form 2-methoxy-6-vinylnaphthalene. Show three different coupling reactions, and the required reagents, that could be used to carry out this step.
