Chlorosuccinimide → 3,5-Dichloro-7-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

300 mg (1.0 mmol) of 5-chloro-7-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)imidazo[1,2-c]pyrimidine (Example 6A) are suspended in chloroform (15 ml), 240 mg (1.8 mmol) of N-chlorosuccinimide are added, and the reaction mixture is stirred at RT for 12 h. The reaction mixture is diluted with ethyl acetate (100 ml) and water (75 ml), and the organic phase is separated off, dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated in a rotary evaporator. The residue is stirred with diethyl ether (20 ml), and the solid is filtered off with suction and dried. 63 mg (18% of theory) of the product are isolated.
