Reaction Steps

To 6-chloro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (1 eq, 253 mmol, 39 g) in acetic acid (500 ml) under inert atmosphere, is added dropwise bromine (1 eq, 253 mmol, 13 ml). After 1 hour stirring at room temperature, the reaction mixture is filtered and to give a beige solid (64 g) 3-Bromo-6-chloro-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine hydrobromide; [M+H]+232 (234)
