Participants

Reaction Steps

A 97% acetonitrile solution (52 mL) containing triethylamine (26 μL) was added to (2E)-3-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-3-(5-chloro-6-methoxypyridin-2-yl)prop-2-enoic acid (1.3 g). N-bromosuccinimide (806 mg) was added thereto and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure from the reaction solution. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=19:1) to give the title compound as a colorless powder (363 mg, 25%).
