Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A portion (2.3 g, 10.6 mmol) of the 2-bromo-4-nitrophenol produced in (1) above and 1,2-dibromoethane (7.9 g, 42.1 mmol) were added to N,N-dimethylformamide (20 ml); to the mixture, potassium carbonate (1.6 g) was added, followed by stirring at 80-85° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was added to water (100 ml) and extraction was conducted with ethyl acetate, followed by the drying of the extract with magnesium sulfate and concentration. The residue was subjected to column chromatography using a 10:3:1 solvent system of n-hexane, ethyl ether and ethyl acetate as an eluent to yield the end compound 1-(2-bromo-4-nitrophenoxy-2-bromoethane (2.14 g).
