Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 3-cyano-1-(2,6-dichloro-4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-4-(furan-3-yl)pyrazole (0.19 g) in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) was added portionwise N-bromosuccinimide (0.093 g). The mixture was left at room temperature for 24 hours and then poured into ether (15 ml) and water (15 ml). The layers were separated and the organic layer was dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (10 g) eluted with hexane:dichloromethane (1:1). Combination and evaporation of suitable fractions gave the title compound as a white solid, m.p. 111° C.
