Reaction Steps

1-(3,5-Dimethylphenyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethanone (7.0 g, 31 mmol) was dissolved in acetic acid (35 mL) and bromine (1.6 mL, 31 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 3 h. Ethyl acetate was added to the residue and the precipitated crude crystals were collected by filtration. The crude crystals were washed with ethyl acetate to give the title compound (16 g, yield 96%).
