Procedure
(5-Methoxy-biphenyl-3-yl)-thiourea (109 mg, 0.42 mmol) in chloroform (2 ml) are treated with bromine (22 μl) and the mixture heated to 61° C. for 5 hours. After removal of the volatile components in vacuo, the product (93 g, 86%) is isolated by flash chromatography (silica, eluent ethyl acetate/cyclohexane 2:1 to 5:1) as beige solid. The regiochemistry of the cyclization was checked by transfer-NOE measurements. MS: m/e=256 (M+).
