Water → Ethyl 2-(3,6-dichloroimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazin-2-yl)-2-methylpropionate

Participants

Reaction Steps

4.07 g of ethyl 2-(6-chloroimidazo[1,2-b]pyridazin-2-yl)-2-methylpropionate was suspended in 60 ml of ethyl acetate; 2.13 g of N-chlorosuccinimide was added, followed by thermal refluxing for 4 hours. After cooling, water was added, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate; the extract was washed with saturated saline and dried with magnesium sulfate. The dry product was concentrated under reduced pressure; the residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography and eluted with hexane:ethyl acetate (5:1). The desired fraction was collected and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield 4.48 g of the title compound.
