Procedure

A mixture of 4-methyl-2-phenyl-thiazole-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (5.04 g, 0.02 mol), N-bromosuccinimide (3.8 g, 0.02 mol) and benzoyl peroxide (247 mg, 1 mmol) in carbon tetrachloride (60 mL) was refluxed for 17 h before it was cooled to room temperature and filtered. The filtrate was washed with water, saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound as a yellow solid (6.55 g): 1H NMR (CDCl3, 200 MHz): δ=7.94 (m, 2H), 7.44 (m, 3H), 7.03 (m, 1H), 4.98 (s, 3H), 4.41 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 1.41 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 3H); MS: (+) m/z 326.0, 328.0 (M+1, 79Br/81Br).
