Procedure

7-bromo-2(1H)-quinoxalinone (47.2 g; 210 mmol) was added to phosphorus oxychloride (470 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 100° C. for 2 hours, cooled down to room temperature and evaporated to dryness. The crude product was taken up into DCM and poured onto ice, water and K2CO3 powder. The mixture was filtered over celite. The celite was washed twice with DCM. The organic layer was decanted, dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to dryness to give 49 g (96%) of 7-bromo-2-chloro-quinoxaline (grey solid). MP=146° C.
