N-Bromosuccinimide (3.05 g, 17.1 mmol) was introduced in portions and the reaction allowed to warm to room temperature. After 16 h, the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with concentrated sodium bicarbonate (2×), then brine (2×), dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated. Column chromatography on silica gel (10% ethylacete/hexanes) gave 2.1 g (83%) as a light brown oil. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ 8.07 (s, 1H), 7.96 (s, 1H), 7.70 (s, 1H), 4.42 (s, 2H), 3.90 (s, 3H). Mass spec.: 308.93 (MH)+.
