Procedure: A stirred solution of tert-butyl 2-naphthylcarbamate (104) [PCT Int. Appl. (2002) WO 02/067930, Searcey, M., Patterson, L. H.] (20.3 g, 83 mmol) in MeCN (150 mL) was treated portionwise at 0° C. with NBS (17.82 g, 100 mmol), then stirred for a further 2 h at 0° C. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in CH2Cl2. The solution was filtered through a short column of silica gel, and the product was recrystallised from MeOH to give tert-butyl 1-bromo-2-naphthylcarbamate (105) (24.09 g, 90%), as a white solid: mp 90-91° C.; 1H NMR [(CD3)2SO] δ 8.82 (s, 1H), 8.15 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 7.96 (d, J=9.6 Hz, 1H), 7.93 (d, J=9.3 Hz, 1H), 7.71 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.66 (t, J=7.7 Hz, 1H), 7.56 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 1H), 1.49 (s, 9H). Anal. (C15H16BrNO2) C, H, N, Br. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure the residue was dissolved in CH2Cl2 The solution was filtered through a short column of silica gel the product was recrystallised from MeOH
