Procedure

5-Fluoro-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one 4a (1.5 g, 0.01 mol) was dissolved in 15 ml of acetonitrile under stirring, and added dropwise with N-bromosuccinimide (1.8 g, 0.01 mol) at room temperature. Upon completion of the addition, the mixture was stirred overnight and lots of precipitate was formed. After thin lay chromatography showed the disappearance of starting materials, the reaction mixture was filtered to obtain 7-bromo-5-fluoro-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one 4b (2 g, yield 87%) as a gray solid.
