Reaction Steps

5-Bromo-2-hydroxy-benzonitrile (5.4 g, 27.0 mmol), 2-bromoethylether (2.76 ml, 29.7 mmol) and K2CO3 (4.5 g, 32.4 mmol) are mixed in 50 ml DMF. The reaction mixture is stirred at 50 C overnight. Addition of water and extraction into ethylacetate yields the title compound which is further purified by tituration with ether/hexanes. 1H-NMR (400 MHz; DMSO-d6): 7.99 (d, 1H), 7.82 (dd, 1H), 7.23 (d, 1H), 4.27 (t, 2H), 3.69 (t, 2H), 3.33 (s, 3H). LC-MS (m/z, ES+): 273 (M+NH4+), retention time: 2.77 mins (LC-MS method 3)
