Reaction Steps

Iron powder (1.77 g, 31.63 mmol) was added in portions to a mixture of 6n (3 g, 6.32 mmol) in AcOH (90 mL) at 80° C. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 30 min and then cooled to room temperature and diluted with water. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration. The solid was dissolved in an excess of ethyl acetate and filtered. The filtrate was dried and concentrated to give a residue that was purified by silica gel flash column chromatography (ethyl acetate-hexane 2:3) to give 7d, yield 62%. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 11.92 (br, s, 1H), 10.73 (br, s, 1H), 8.75 (s, 2H), 7.68 (m, 2H), 7.57 (m, 2H), 7.25 (m, 1H), 6.79 (m, 1H), 6.59 (m 2H); EI-MS m/z 443 [M]+, 445 [M+2]+; HRMS calculated for C18H12BrN5O2SNa [M+Na]+: 465.9943, found: 465.9938. Anal. (C18H14BrN5O2S) C, H, N.
