Reaction Steps

Step 1 A mixture of 3-bromo-2-methylaniline (1.66 mL, 13.4 mmol), 2-fluorobenzoic acid (1.883 g, 13.4 mmol), and HOAT (2.74 g, 20.2 mmol) in EtOAc (60 mL) was treated with DIEA (4.7 mL, 26.9 mmol) and EDC (5.15 g, 26.9 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at rt. After 19 h, the mixture was diluted with EtOAc and washed with water, 1 M hydrochloric acid (twice), NaHCO3 (aq) (twice) and brine, dried and concentrated to provide N-(3-bromo-2-methylphenyl)-2-fluorobenzamide as tan fluffy needles (4.11 g, 99%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, chloroform-d) δ 8.34-8.50 (1 H, m), 8.20 (1 H, td, J=7.9, 1.8 Hz), 7.96 (1 H, d, J=8.1 Hz), 7.50-7.59 (1 H, m), 7.44 (1 H, dd, J=8.0, 0.8 Hz), 7.30-7.37 (1 H, m), 7.21 (1 H, dd, J=12.8, 7.9 Hz), 7.12 (1 H, t, J=8.0 Hz), 2.45 (3 H, s). Mass spectrum m/z 308, 310 (M+H)+.
