Reaction Steps

To 5-(5-{3-chloro-4-[(1-methylethyl)oxy]phenyl}-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-1H-indole (D5) (450 mg, 1.27 mmol) dissolved in DMF (12 ml) was added bromine (213 mg, 1.35 mmol) dropwise. Stirred for 15 minutes, evaporated off the DMF, added diethyl ether (70 ml) and washed with water (2×70 ml). Dried over MgSO4 and evaporated off the solvent. The residue was crystallised from diethyl ether/hexane to give 160 mg of the title compound as a white solid. δH (400 MHz, d6-DMSO) 1.37 (6H, d), 4.88 (1H, sept), 7.44 (1H, d), 7.59 (1H, dd), 7.72 (1H, d), 7.91 (1H, dd), 8.13-8.32 (3H, m).
