Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Intermediate 6 (1.30 g, 3.94 mmol) was suspended in hydrogen bromide solution (6.82 mL, 47% aq., 59.1 mmol) and the resulting suspension warmed to 110° C. Hydrogen bromide solution (14 mL, 47% aq., 121.3 mmol) was added portion-wise over the course of the reaction. After 47 h, the reaction mixture was cooled to RT then in ice and the pH adjusted with sodium hydroxide solution (1 M, aq.) to pH 8. The mixture was filtered and the resulting solid washed with H2O and ACN. The solid was sucked dry to give i (1.01 g, 81%). MS 315.87 & 317.84 [M+H]+.
