Procedure

4-Methyl-2-(4-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-thiazole-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.6 g, 5.00 mmol) is dissolved into chloroform (50 mL) then N-bromosuccinimide (1.0 g, 5.5 mmol) and 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (0.412 g, 2.5 mmol) are added and the reaction is heated to reflux. The reaction is monitored by TLC until no starting material remained. The reaction is allowed to cool to room temperature, then diluted with more chloroform (100 mL). Water (50 mL) is added and the two phases are separated. The organic layer is washed with brine, then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The material is then concentrated and further purified using flash column chromatography to yield 1.97 g or 99% yield.
