After complete addition of the aqueous solution the resulting dark red reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for an additional 30 min. The cooled (0° C.) reaction mixture was then added over 20 min. to a suspension of 8.21 g (57.2 mmol) of cuprous bromide in 60 mL of ethanol and 60 mL of 48% aqueous hydrobromic acid heated to 95° C. After stirring for 30 min. the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and carefully partitioned between ethyl ether (250 mL) and water (600 mL). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl ether (2×300 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (100 mL), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was passed through a plug of silica gel eluting with 30% dichloromethane in hexanes and the filtrate concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography on a Biotage® purification apparatus (silica gel, 7% dichloromethane/hexanes) yielded the title compound as a colorless solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 8.67 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1 H), 8.50 (s, 1 H), 8.15 (s, 1H), 8.02 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1 H), 7.68-7.71 (m, 1 H), 7.63-7.66 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 1 H), 3.94 (s, 3 H). LC/MS 265.0 (M+1) and 267.0 (M+3).
