Participants

Reaction Steps

4-[(2,4-difluorobenzyl)oxy]-1-[5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylphenyl]-6-methyl-pyridin-2(1H)-one (from Step 2) (4.0 g, 10.8 mmol) was stirred at room temperature with N-bromosuccinimide (2.1 g, 11.9 mmol) in 100 ml of CH2Cl2 for 2.0 hours. The reaction was evaporated on a rotary evaporator and the resulting solid was washed with acetonitrile and dried in vacuo to yield a white solid (3.9 g, 80%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.67 (app q, J=6.24 Hz, 1H), 7.35 (d, J=1.01 Hz, 2H), 7.10 (s, 1H), 7.04 (m, 1H), 6.91 (ddd, J=11.08, 8.66, 2.42 Hz, 1H), 6.15 (d, J=0.63 Hz, 2H), 5.29 (s, 2H), 4.66 (s, 2H), 2.08 (s, 3H), 1.97 (s, 3H); ES-MS m/z 450 (M+H). ES-HRMS m/z 450.0467 (M+H calcd for C21H19BrF2NO3 requires 450.0511).
