Participants

Reaction Steps

6.8 g of bromide from Example 5b (22.35 mmol) and 3.7 g (29 mmol; 1.3 eq) of sodium sulfite are dissolved in 40 ml of deionised water and 40 ml of ethanol in a 250 ml one-necked flask, and the mixture is heated at 100° C. for 20 h. The cooled reaction mixture is extracted with methyl t-butyl ether/heptane (1:1). The aqueous phase is acidified (pH=0) and extracted with methyl t-butyl ether. The combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated.
