Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-(benzyloxy)-1-(3-fluorobenzyl)pyridin-2(1H)-one (4.83 g, 15.6 mmol) in anhydrous acetonitrile (55 mL) and N-iodosuccinimide (NIS, 3.86 g, 17.1 mmol) was heated at 65° C. under nitrogen for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel) using ethyl acetate/hexane (1:1 v:v). The appropriate fractions were collected according to ES MS (M+H 436) and washed with Na2SO3 to remove the color impurities. The fractions were concentrated under reduced pressure and dried in vacuo to afford the desired product (6.15 g, 90%) as a light yellow solid. 1H-NMR (CD3OD, 400 MHz) δ7.73 (d, 1H, J=7.6 Hz), 7.47 (d, 2H, J=7.2 Hz), 7.39 (m, 4H), 7.08 (m, 3H), 6.39 (d, 1H, J=8.0 Hz), 5.29 (s, 2H), 5.19 (s, 2H); ES-HRMS m/z 436.0210 (M+H calculated for C19H16NO2FI requires 436.0196).
