Reaction Steps

A solution of 106 mg (0.519 mmol) of 4-(4-amino-phenyl)-piperidine-2,6-dione (as prepared in the previous step) in CH2Cl2 (20 mL) was cooled to 0° C. and treated with 92.4 mg (0.519 mmol) of NBS for 35 min. The mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2 (50 mL) and washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (2×40 mL) and water (1×40 mL). The organic layer was dried (MgSO4) and concentrated in vacuo to afford 138 mg (94%) of the title compound as a tan solid: Mass spectrum (ESI, m/z): Calcd. for C11H11N2O2Br, 283.0/285.0 (M+H), found 283.1/285.1.
