Procedure

1 g (6.98 mmol) of 2-(4-methylthiazol-5-yl)ethanol is dissolved in 15 mL of dichloromethane. The solution is cooled to 0° C. When the temperature is reached, 1.85 g (6.98 mmol) of triphenylphosphine are added, followed by portionwise addition of 1.30 g (6.98 mmol) of N-bromosuccinimide. After stirring for 2 hours at 0° C., the mixture is evaporated to dryness. The residue is purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluent: 50/50 EtOAc/heptane) to give 900 mg of 5-(2-bromoethyl)-4-methylthiazole, the characteristics of which are as follows:
