Reaction Steps

5-bromo-N-(4-bromophenyl)-2-nitrosoaniline (13-1) (10 g, 28.1 mmol) in AcOH (300 mL) was heated under reflux for 1.5 hrs. Water (400 mL) was then added and the brown precipitate formed was collected by filtration after washing with water (2×200 mL). The product was purified by silica gel chromatography (SiO2, hexanes/DCM=1/1(v/v)) to afford a brown solid, 2,7-dibromophenazine 13-2 (1.52 g, 16% yield). 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.43 (2H, dd, J 2.2, 0.4 Hz), 8.10 (2H, dd, J 9.2, 0.4 Hz), 7.91 (2H, dd, J 9.2, 2.2 Hz) ppm. LC-MS (ESI): m/z 338.6 [M+H]+.
