Boron tribromide → HCID 135433621, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Boron tribromide (3.0 ml of a 1.0M solution in dichloromethane) was added to a solution of the product from Example 60 (210 mg) in dichloromethane (10 ml) at −78° C. under nitrogen with stirring. The mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature slowly, and after stirring at this temperature for 2 days the mixture was quenched by the addition of aqueous ammonium chloride solution. The organic layer was separated, dried and evaporated to give a residue which was purified by flash column chromatography on silica using dichloromethane and then increasing amounts of methanol, up to 15% of methanol, in dichloromethane as the mobile phase. Appropriate fractions were collected, combined and evaporated to give 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1H-[1]benzothieno[3,2-c]pyrazole, m.p. 137-1 39° C.
