The reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo to afford a crystalline residue, which was recrystallized from a mixture of ethyl acetate and diisopropyl ether to give ethyl 2-methylamino-5-(2-bromopropionyl)-4-thiazolecarboxylate (7.4 g).
