Conditions

Temperature: 100 °C

Procedure

A mixture of 4-bromo-2-bromomethyl-6-chloro-benzoic acid methyl ester (0.900 g, 2.65 mmol), 4-chloro-benzylamine (0.391 mL, 3.2 mmol), and K2CO3 (0.69 g, 5.0 mmol) in toluene (10 mL) was heated with stirring at 100° C. for 2 h. Workup and silica gel column chromatography using 30% ethyl acetate in hexane afforded 5-bromo-7-chloro-2-(4-chloro-benzyl)-2,3-dihydro-isoindol-1-one (0.391 g, 41%). GC-MS: m/z 371 (M)+, 336 (M−35)+.
