8-Bromo-2,3-dihydro-2-phenylbenzofuro[3,2-b]pyridin-4(1H)-one → HCID 178515547, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 8-bromo-2-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-benzofuro[3,2-b]pyridin-4(1H)-one (23.8 g, 69.55 mmol) and FeCl3.6H2O (112.78 g, 417.3 mmol) was added to 1,4-dioxane (300 mL) The mixture was refluxed for 16 hours. TLC showed the reaction completed. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and poured into ice-water (500 mL) The yellow solids precipitated out were collected by filtration to give 4-hydroxyl-8-bromo-2-phenyl-benzofuro[3,2-b]pyridine (6D) (15.7 g, 66.36% yield).
