Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-benzyl-3-methyl-5-propyl-6H-isothiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-7-one (method 59) (208 mg, 0.69 mmol) and sodium acetate (0.5 g, 5 mmol) in acetic acid (10 mL) at 100° C., a solution of the bromine (0.232 g, 1.46 mmol) in acetic acid (20 mL) was added dropwise [The next drop of Bromine was added only after the previous drop had reacted completely by monitoring the decolorization] over a period of 30 min. 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 (3×30 mL) and the organic layers were combined and washed with 2% sodium thiosulfate solution (30 mL), water (50 mL), brine (50 mL) and dried (Na2SO4). Concentration of the organic layer provided the product and it was pure enough to be used in the next step. Yield 260 mg (99%). 1H NMR (300 MHz) δ 0.77 (t, 3H), 2.20-2.54 (m, 2H), 2.70 (s, 3H), 4.67 (t, 1H), 4.95 (d, 1H), 6.25 (d, 1H) 7.10-7.19 (m, 2H), 7.30-7.39 (m, 3H).
