Participants

Reaction Steps

N-Butyl-4-[3-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-4,4,4-trifluoro-1-hydroxyimino-but-2-enyl]-2-methyl-benzamide (Example 3.1) (380 mg, 0.94 mmol) and N-bromosuccinimide (200 mg, 1.12 mmol) were heated in N,N-dimethylformamide (2 ml) at 120° C. for 7 minutes. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to ambient temperature and then extracted with diethyl ether. The combined organic extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluent: hexane/ethyl acetate 4:1) to give Compound No. A1 of Table A (210 mg, 40% yield) as a solid foam.
