Reaction Steps

Compound 2-fluoro-4-methoxybenzonitrile (2.97 g, 19.0 mmol) in CHCl3 (30 mL) was added Br2 (2 mL), and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 4 days. The mixture was diluted by DCM and washed with saturated NaHCO3, water, brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified with fast column chromatograph to give 5-bromo-2-fluoro-4-methoxybenzonitrile. 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.76 (d, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 6.73 (d, J=10.5 Hz, 1H), 3.96 (s, 3H).
