The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours. The mixture was quenched with aqueous sodium bicarbonate and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The crude product from the organic phase was chromatographed on silica gel eluting with 20% ethyl acetate in hexane to afford the 5-Bromo-2-isopropylsulfonylpyridine compound as a white solid.
