Phosphorus tribromide → 2-((4-Bromoquinolin-6-yl)(4-chlorophenyl)methyl)thiazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

6-((4-chlorophenyl)(thiazol-2-yl)methyl)quinolin-4-ol (500 mg, 1.417 mmol, 1 equip) was dissolved in DMF (4 mL) and phosphorus tribromide (766 mg, 2.834 mmol, 2 equip) was added dropwise. A red-brown precipitate formed immediately and was collected to yield 2-((4-bromoquinolin-6-yl)(4-chlorophenyl)methyl)thiazole which was used in the next step without purification.
