Procedure

A 100 mL, one neck round bottom flask was charged with 2-amino-5-bromobenzenethiol (1.19 g, 5.83 mmol), triethyl orthoformate (9.70 ml, 58.3 mmol), 10 mL TFE, and a stirbar. A reflux condenser with a vacuum/nitrogen inlet was a fixed to the flask, and the system was degassed by evacuating to 5 mm Hg, and refilling with nitrogen. To the solution was added 200 mg dithiothreitol, and the reaction was heated using a 80° C. oil bath for 12 h. The reaction was cooled, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude was not characterized further.
