Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-benzyl-3-methyl-6-propyl-5H-isothiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one (method 8) (369 mg, 1.23 mmol) and sodium acetate (1 g) in acetic acid (5 mL) at 100° C., a solution of the bromine (318 mg, 2 mmol) in acetic acid (10 mL) was added dropwise over a period of 20 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled after the addition and the TLC (eluent 10% EtOAc in hexanes) and MS showed the complete disappearance of the SM and only the product. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water and extracted with EtOAc (3×60 mL) and the organic layers were combined and washed with 2% sodium thiosulfate solution (60 mL), water (100 mL), brine (100 mL) and dried over Na2SO4. Concentration of the organic layer provided the pure 5-benzyl-6-(1-bromo-propyl)-3-methyl-5H-isothiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one, (460 mg, 100%) as white crystalline solid. 1H NMR (300 MHz) δ 0.76 (t, 3H), 2.1-2.47 (m, 2H), 2.84 (s, 3H), 4.62 (t, 1H), 4.88 (d, 1H), 6.20 (d, 1H), 7.10-7.40 (m, 5H).
