1-bromo-5-chloropentan-2-one

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: The mixture of 4-bromo-2-iodophenol (3.30 g, 11.04 mmol), 1-bromo-5-chloropentan-2-one (75% purity, 3.9 g, 14.66 mmol), and K2CO3 (2.3 g, 16.64 mmol) in acetone (66 mL) was stirred for 48 hours at ambient temperature. The insoluble material was removed by filtration and washed with EtOAc. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silicagel column chromatography (EtOAc-hexane, a linear gradient of EtOAc from 0 to 25%) afforded 1-(4-bromo-2-iodophenoxy)-5-chloropentan-2-one (2.12 g). The insoluble material was removed by filtration washed with EtOAc The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo The residue was purified by silicagel column chromatography (EtOAc-hexane

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: A solution of 1-bromo-5-chloro-2-pentanone (6.7 g) and thioacetamide (2.5 g) in methanol (10 ml) was stirred at 50° C. for 5 hours. After concentration of the reaction mixture, the residue was allowed to stand for 10 days. The crystalline residue was suspended in a mixture of methanol and diethyl ether and the remained solid was collected by filtration to give brown powder (7.3 g) of 4-(3-chloropropyl)-2-methylthiazole monohydrobromide. the remained solid was collected by filtration

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.
