N-bromobutanimide → 6-BROMO-8-FLUORO-3,4-DIHYDROQUINOLIN-2(1H)-ONE

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 8-fluoro-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one (1-2; 8.30 g, 50.10 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (250 mL) was added N-bromosuccinimide (9.80 g, 55.10 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (120 mL) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h, cooled, and diluted with ice cold water (500 mL). The resulting precipitated was filtered and dried to obtain the title compound as a white solid; 1H NMR (DMSO-D6, 500 MHz) δ=10.20 (s, 1H), 7.37 (dd, J=2.0 Hz, JHF=10.0 Hz, 1H), 7.26 (s, 1H), 2.93 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 2.47 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 2H).
