Procedure

A solution of NaNO2 (2.2 g, 0.040 mol) in H2O (22 mL) was added to a mixture of 6-aminoisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one (5.0 g, 0.030 mol) in HBr (70 mL, 48%) over 5 min at 0° C. The mixture was stirred for 20 minutes before it was pipetted into an ice cold solution of CuBr (22 g, 0.21 mol) in HBr (48%, 23 mL). The resulting dark brown mixture was stirred for 20 min and was then diluted with H2O (200 mL) to produce an orange precipitate. The precipitate was filtered off, treated with sat. NaHCO3 solution, and extracted with EtOAc (20 mL×3). The organics were dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated in vacuo to give 6-bromoisobenzofuran-1(3H)-one (5.4 g, 84%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.05 (d, J=1.8, 1H), 7.80 (dd, J=8.1, 1.8, 1H), 7.39 (d, J=8.1, 1H), 5.28 (s, 2H).
