Reaktionsschritte

1-(8-Bromo-4,5-dihydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]oxepin-2-yl)-2-(2-chlorophenyl)ethanone (1.0 g, 2.3 mmol) was prepared by reaction of 2-chlorophenylacetic acid with methyl 8-bromo-4,5-dihydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]oxepine-2-carboxylate. A solution of 1-(8-bromo-4,5-dihydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]oxepin-2-yl)-2-(2-chlorophenyl)ethanone in ethyl acetate (60 mL) was treated with copper(II) bromide (1.3 g, 5.8 mmol) in one portion in 100 mL rb flask. Acetic acid (2 mL) was added, and the flask sealed and heated at 85° C. After 8 hr, the reaction was removed from heat and allowed to stand overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness, diluted with 100 mL diethyl ether and filtered through celite (ether wash). The eluent was re-filtered through the same celite pad, and concentration gave 2-bromo-1-(8-bromo-4,5-dihydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-d]oxepin-2-yl)-2-(2-chlorophenyl)ethanone as a crude solid used without purification.
