Abstract

A short and efficient method for the synthesis of a series of 5-functionalized 4-bromo-2-chlorothiazole derivatives has been developed by application of the halogen-dance reaction.

General Procedure for the HD Reaction and Quenching with Electrophiles to Compounds 2a-h:
To a solution of 5-bromo-2-chlorothiazole (1, 199 mg, 1 mmol, 1 equiv) in anhydrous THF under argon atmosphere a freshly prepared solution of LDA (1.2 equiv) in anhydrous THF was added at -80 °C and the mixture stirred at that temperature until TLC analysis showed complete HD reaction (15-20 min). Then the corresponding electrophile (1.5 equiv) was added at -80 °C and the reaction was allowed to warm to r.t. The reaction mixture was poured into 2 N HCl and the aqueous phase was extracted with Et2O. The organic layer was washed with 2 N HCl (2×), H2O (2×) and brine (2×), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified either by column chromatography or by Kugelrohr distillation.
