Phosphorus oxybromide → 4-Bromo-2-(4-isopropylphenyl)-2H-phthalazin-1-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Hydroxy-2-(4-isopropylphenyl)-2H-phthalazin-1-one (0.10 g, 0.36 mmol), phosphorus oxybromide (0.41 g, 1.4 mmol) and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (0.02 g, 0.09 mmol) were stirred at 150° C. for 30 min. H2O (100 ml) was added after cooling to RT. Extraction with DCM, drying of the combined organic phases over Na2SO4 and evaporation of the solvent yielded the desired compound (0.05 g, 41%) which was used without any further characterization.
