N-bromobutanimide → HCID 11463152, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-[4-(benzyloxy)-2-oxopyridin-1(2H)-yl]benzonitrile (Step 1) (2.76 g, 9.13 mmol) was suspended in acetonitrile (50 mL) and cooled in an ice-bath. N-bromosuccinimide (1.71 g, 9.54 mmol) was added. Once the addition was complete the cooling bath was removed. After stirring for 45 minutes the reaction was diluted with acetonitrile and solids were collected by filtration to give a white solid (3.13 g, 90%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.00 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 2H), 7.84 (d, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 7.66 (d, J=8.5, 2H), 7.50-7.37 (m, 5H), 6.63 (d, J=7.9 Hz, 1H), 5.41 (s, 2H).
