Procedure

The above compound, 10-methyl-phenanthridinone (4.0 grams, 19 mmole) was added to a reaction flask containing phosphorus pentachloride (6.0 grams, 0.29 mole) and phosphoryl chloride (50 mL). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 4 hours, cooled to room temperature and diluted with toluene. The excess phosphoryl chloride and toluene were removed by a rotary evaporator. The residue was dissolved into ethyl acetate and washed with distilled water followed by brine. The solvent layer was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give 6-chloro-10-methylphenanthridine (4.1 grams, 95%) as an off-white solid. The product was confirmed by Mass Spec and NMR and not purified further but used directly in the next step.
