Heated the reaction mixture to 100° C. for 3 hours. Cooled the reaction to room temperature and concentrated. Diluted with ice water and quenched to pH ˜8 with concentrated ammonium hydroxide. The resulting residue was filtered and washed with water followed by ethyl ether. Dried under vacuum to afford crude 2-bromobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine (6.97 g, 28.1 mmol, 100% yield).
