Participants

Reaction Steps

The product from Step 2 (860 mg, 3.82 mmol) was taken up in CHCl3 (19 mL) and placed in a cool water bath. NaHCO3 (353 mg, 4.20 mmol) was added, followed by bromine (1.22 g, 7.63 mmol). After stirring for 90 min at room temperature, the reaction was diluted with 10% Na2S2O3 and saturated NaHCO3 and extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated. Flash chromatography (0-10% ether in hexanes) afforded tert-butyl 1-(5-bromo-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)cyclopropanecarboxylate (545 mg, 47%) as a colorless oil. MS ESI: [M-t-Bu]+ m/z 247.9/249.9.
