Participants

Reaction Steps

To the crude 1-[6-(4-bromo-2-chloro-phenylamino)-7-fluoro-3H-benzoimidazol-5-yl]-2-(isopropoxy-dimethyl-silanyl)-ethanol 10v in MeOH-THF (5 mL-5 mL) is added KHCO3 (54 mg, 0.54 mmol), and KF (74 mg, 1.27 mmol), and 30% aqueous H2O2 (0.20 mL) at rt. After stirring for 3.5 hours at room temperature, the reaction mixture is diluted with water, and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer is dried over MgSO4, filtered, concentrated in vacuo, and purified by flash chromatography (8% to 10% MeOH in CH2Cl2) to give the desired product (74 mg, 34%): MS APCI (+) m/z 400, 402 (M+, Br pattern) detected; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 8.20 (s, 1H), 7.62 (broad s, 1H), 7.47 (d, 1H), 7.14 (dd, 1H), 6.30 (d, 1H), 4.96 (t, 1H), 3.64 (m, 2H); 19F NMR (376 MHz, CD3OD) −136.87 (s).
