Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

1-(3-Fluoro-4-methanesulfonyl-phenyl)-propan-2-one (68c) (6.0 g, 26 mmol) is dissolved in dioxan (50 ml) and the solution is cooled to 10° C. at which point the mixture is semi frozen. A solution of bromine (0.9 ml, 17 mmol) in chloroform (2 ml) is added slowly over 30 minutes and the mixture is stirred for an additional 15 minutes in a semi frozen state. The mixture is then allowed to warm to room temperature and the solvent is removed to give a red oil. Ethanol (70 ml) and (1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-thiourea (35a) (3.2 g, 22 mmol) are added and the reaction is stirred at 60° C. for 30 minutes. The solution is allowed to cool to room temperature whereupon the product crystallises. Filtration affords the titled compound.
