Procedure
Phosphorus pentachloride (4.95 g, 23.8 mmol) was added to a solution of 7-phenylazepan-2-one (4.50 g, 23.8 mmol) in dichloromethane (75 mL) at 0° C. After 1 h, iodine (0.060 g, 0.24 mmol) and a solution of bromine (1.22 mL, 23.8 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) were added sequentially and the mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature. After 1.5 h, the reaction was quenched with aqueous sodium sulfite. The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (3×), and the combined organic extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. Purification by silica gel chromatography (10% ethyl acetate/hexanes→50% ethyl acetate/hexanes) gave the title compound (4.91 g). MS 268 (M+1).
