Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2,6-difluoro-3-hydroxybenzenecarbonitrile (4.5 g, 29.0 mmol), K2CO3 (6.01 g, 43.5 mmol) and Nal (0.78 g 5.8 mmol) in DMF (75 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 5 minutes. 5-chloro-2-(chloromethyl)-1,3-benzothiazole was then added and the mixture heated at 40° C. for 18 hours, cooled to room temperature and poured into water (450 ml). Buff solid was filtered off and dried (9.46 g). This was the recrystallised from acetonitrile (30 ml) and dried in vacuo at 40° C. to give a beige solid. Yield 79%, mp 145-147° C., HPLC (Gemini C18, 50×4.6 mm): m/z 337 [M+H]+, Rt=4.93 min.
