The reaction was stirred for 20 minutes, and then water (200 mL) and ether (500 mL) were added. The aqueous phase was extracted with ether. The combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The solid was crystallized from EtOAc to provide 5-bromo-4-fluoro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine (12.5 g, 72% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 11.06 (br s, 1H), 8.39 (d, 1H), 7.35 (dd, 1H), 6.60 (dd, 1H); LCMS (APCI+) m/z 214.9, 216.9 (M+H)+, Retention time=2.75 minutes (Method 1).
