Procedure

a mixture of benzamide (3.7 g, 31 mmol), 2-bromo-1-(4-nitrophenyl)ethanone (5.00 g, 20 mmol) and 2.5 mL NMP heated in a 135° C. oil bath. After 30 minutes a precipitate developed. Another 2 mL of NMP was added to dissolve the precipitate. The reaction was heated for a total of 2 hours then removed from the oil bath. The reaction mixture solidified upon cooling. 30-40 mL acetonitrile was added to the solid and the resulting mixture was heated to 90° C. The resulting solution was removed from the oil bath and a precipitate developed upon cooling. The precipitate was collected by filtration (3.4 g, 62%).
