Reaction Steps

This compound was prepared according the procedure by B. Wilson et. al, Tetrahedron 64 (2008), 3429-3436. To the solution of 10H-phenothiazine in anhydrous chloroform (22 mL), at 5° C., surmounted with an addition funnel was added the solution of iodine (2.4 g, 9.40 mmol) in CHCl3 (55 mL) over a 1 h period. The resulting dark solution was stirred for an additional 1 h at 5° C. monitored by TLC. After the disappearance of the starting material, the cooling bath was removed, solid precipitate was filtered, washed several times with chloroform, dried, to afford a very dark solid.
