Procedure

A solution of 4-bromobenzoyl chloride (5.6 g) in 50 mL of tetrahydrofuran was cooled to 0° C. and treated with aqueous methylamine (5 mL of 40%). After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 16 hours. At the end of this period, the reaction mixture was diluted with water, extracted with ethyl acetate and the organic layer was washed with 10% HCl followed by sodium carbonate. Upon drying over magnesium sulfate and evaporation, a white solid was obtained (4.64 g); MS: 214; NMR: 3.0 (d, J=5, 3), 6.2 (br, 1), 7.5-7.6 (m, 2), 7.6-7.7 (m, 2).
