N-bromobutanimide → HCID 178498689, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl-5-fluoro-1H-indazole-4-carboxylate (0.475 g, 2.45 mmol) in 25 mL of DMF was added N-bromosuccinimide (0.566 g, 3.18 mmol). This mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for one hour, then quenched with water. This mixture was extracted with EtOAc, and the combined organic extracts washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. Column chromatography (1:1 EtOAc/Hexane) afforded 0.459 g (69%) of the title compound.
