Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-bromo-1-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]ethanone (1 g) in acetonitrile (2.5 mL) and water (10 mL) is treated under microwave irradiation (125° C., 50 min). The same experiment is repeated five times. All the vials are collected, extracted with DCM, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum to give the desired compound.
