Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of 47.5 parts of 4-[4-[[1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]amino]-1-piperidinyl]-2-butanone and 500 parts of acetic acid was acidified with a hydrobromic acid solution in glacial acetic acid. Then there were added dropwise 11.8 parts of bromine dissolved in acetic acid. Upon completion, stirring was continued overnight at room temperature. The precipitated product was filtered off and suspended in 2-propanone. The product was filtered off and dried, yielding 23 parts (48.3%) of 1-bromo-4-[4-[[1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]amino]-1-piperidinyl]-2-butanone dihydrobromide (intermediate 92).
